OCTOBER Anyone who travels returns a dif ferent person Open up your mind and the door to your hear t When you seek the light, you’ve got to get through the night And when the oppor tunit y is there, you’ve got to seize it Go with me up the mountain that nobody has c onquered Go with me into the forest where October ends I’ve traveled on my own, looking for the tr uth Take my hand and taste love

Dear Reader
In this edition of the magazine, we’re focusing on cozy indoor activities. Here in the Nordic countries, the next few months will be cold, dark, windy and rainy, and that’s why it’s now time to get ready for winter. It’s all about making the most of each season. We highly recommend inviting friends and family on a walk through the beautiful autumn forest to collect chestnuts, seed heads and golden twigs. Get your cheeks nice and red, and feel the wind in your hair, and then return to your home for a cozy evening with warm drinks, good food and nice talks. You can use the things that you’ve collected to make the most adorable decorations and make your home ooze of autumn and coziness. You can also spend a couple of days tidying up and exchanging a few bits and bobs to add more rustic simplicity to your autumn home. The homes that we’re visiting and the do-ityourself articles in this edition are full of inspiration. Enjoy the time now before the Christmas season sets in. Happy reading!
