Paris, the flowers have not given up yet
Paris in October is in no hurry to drop its leaves. The flowers are still out, the light is still warm, people are still sitting outside. This city teaches us that autumn is not an ending — it is a slowing down.
New York, the loudest red there is
Autumn in New York is loud. Red leaves light up the whole city and even the walking gets quicker. This is Toledo country — the line UIN has been walking the longest.
Shanghai, where the ginkgo turns first
Autumn in Shanghai gets laid down rather than falls. A whole street covered in ginkgo, and the cats are out before the people are. This city treats autumn as something ordinary — like a pair of shoes you can wear every day.
