Cuyahoga National Park is also nice place to see fall color. #autumn #travelusa #travelcolumbus #ohio #worldtraveler #travelworld #travelinspiration #travel Inspiration

Fall is often associated with loneliness, but the season is different for me. The golden view and the sounds of rustling leaves falling is so romantic. I enjoy romantic picnic under the maple trees, and a brisk walks on the evening under the yellowish forest. Fall is also the best time to dine outside. It is fun to eat amidst the chill breeze and luxurious golden trees. One day, I cooked lemon butter salmon for picnic with my partner, and we totally enjoyed the experience. I somehow craves for ice cream and chocolate in Fall. Maybe the sweetness of the season makes me crave for something sweet. That's my Fall story. How do you enjoy your fall? #fallingforfall #falls #romantic #couplestrip #foodie

#passionpassport On one end of the site is the city’s learning campus and on the other is the town’s civic core. Prior to the redesign, the park was underused; there were limited connections to and through the park. Now a network of walkways connects the community’s schools to its library, health center, arts center, and downtown shops and restaurants. It also has created opportunities for residents to engage with nature and the Rose Run Creek that traverses the park. Nice park to spend evening, walking or have dinner nearby. #travelinspiration #travelusa #travelohio #passionpassport #awesomepic

#passionpassport I love nature and all things related to nature. Rain, Flowers, Trees, Soil smell after rain, Oceans, Beaches, Mountains and all other things related to nature. Our earth is amazing and the system it’s environment and how day and night cycle goes on and then comes different season. Each place on earth is different so comes the Sunset. Seeing sunset on top of mountain or on the sea beach each sunset is different. I love watching sunsets and sunrises. I hike hours to see beautiful sunsets or sunrises. It’s so calm and gives new hope. Sunset in Alum Creek was one of the best sunset I saw. #columbus #sunset #sunrise #travelusa

#passionpassport When I used to watch movies and see colorful trees I used to wonder how it happens. Why in India which is very warm all around the year we never see that kind of color in India. I visited USA and saw trees due to cold turns and gets colorfully with different colors. Fall all trees in cold places looks very beautiful. Specially maple trees which turn to very beautiful red color. There are places in Michigan which are famous for its fall color. If one gets chance they should once visit and see fall color. It’s a cool thing. #fallcolor #michigan #usatravel #ohio #travel Inspiration #globecohtravel
