A time for change and reflection


The leaves are falling from the trees, nature is preparing for winter and the days are getting shorter. At the same time, November signals the upcoming Advent season and the end of the year. 


In this blog post, we would like to talk about the meaning of November and present some activities and traditions that fit this time of year:



1. nature and hiking: Take the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful autumn landscape in all its glory. Go hiking or walking in nature to experience the riot of colour of the falling leaves. November offers a unique atmosphere that exudes peace and serenity.



2. time for reflection and rest: November is a time when we can retreat and reflect on the past year. Use this time to pause and introspect. Deliberately create moments of calm and reflect on your personal successes, challenges and lessons.



3. enjoyment of autumnal specialities: November offers an abundance of autumnal treats and culinary delights. Try seasonal products such as pumpkin, chestnuts and apples. Cook hearty stews or bake a delicious apple pie. Let yourself be seduced by the aromas and flavours of autumn.



4. traditions and holidays: November is marked by various traditional holidays and commemorations. For example, St. Martin's Day is celebrated, on which lantern parades often take place. Remembrance Day and Sunday of the Dead also commemorate people who have died and invite reflection. Get to know the local culture and traditions and take part in the corresponding events.



5. Preparing for Advent: November is the perfect time to get in the mood for Advent. Start preparing for Christmas by tying Advent wreaths, baking cinnamon stars or making gifts. Create a cosy atmosphere at home and enjoy the anticipation of the coming festive season.




November is a time of change and reflection that gives us the opportunity to connect with ourselves and nature. Use this time to experience the beauty of autumn, to pause and prepare for the coming holidays. Enjoy the quiet moments and use November as an opportunity to come to rest and recharge your batteries.
