Known as pumpkin spice latte season and for its Instagrammable aesthetic, fall is appreciated by all kinds of people. As leaves come off the trees, many Hamberites find themselves enjoying the autumn season outside, or hanging out with friends to celebrate the spookier side of fall.

Aika Nimmervoll (11) revels in the beauty of Vancouver’s fall season.

“You can take aesthetic photos of the leaves falling and it just gives positive vibes”, she said. She enjoys going to Vancouver’s many parks, finding that “if times get really stressful, going for a walk helps get [her] mind off of it.”

Jayden Chiu (10) takes pleasure in autumn nature on his days off from school.

“I go biking since I don’t have as much time on normal weekends.” Chiu enjoys the scenery Vancouver offers, often going to Steveston and Stanley Park.

Nicholas Mann (11) has some recommendations on where to go on walks.

“I like walking near the Seawall or on the Arbutus Greenway with my friends and family,” he said. He is passionate about these trails, saying that the scenery is beautiful, though sometimes he finds the bikes annoying.

Many Hamberites like going to cafés to try out new autumn drinks.

“I like going to Starbucks because of their creative fall drinks. It’s fun to go with friends to try the new drinks. My go-to fall drink at the moment is the pumpkin spice frappuccino,” Nimmervoll stated.

Parissa Yip (11) shares a similar opinion, claiming that warm drinks are always nice because they prevent her from getting cold while simultaneously keeping her awake.

Mary DeLeon (11) loves staying at home during the fall season.

“As the weather gets colder, I often find myself wrapped in a blanket, reading,” she said. Even though DeLeon loves to read all year long, she finds it even more comforting in the fall.

“I just find that it’s a good break away from my school work instead of just scrolling on my phone,” she added.

With Halloween coming up, many Hamberites also have plans to meet up with friends. Marcus Tsang (12) says, “I’m planning on going to Burnaby’s Pumpkins After Dark with my friends. It should be fun!”

Arianna Tham (11) also has plans to catch up with friends for Halloween.

“We’re going to the Haunted Corn Maze at Maan Farms in Abbotsford. I can’t wait because I haven’t seen these friends in a long time,” she said.
