Life Outside of Campus in Columbus, Ohio

Many people immediately think of The Ohio State University when they hear Columbus, Ohio. This may be rightfully so as the university attracts roughly 60-70k students each year. However, the city and surrounding areas have a lot more to offer outside of the campus. As someone new to Columbus, my weekends and free time have consisted of exploring and checking out some of the city’s most popular spots.

Fall-ing in Love with Columbus

As summer’s warmth fades and a crisp breeze begins to sweep through the air, Columbus is bathed in the golden light of autumn. The trees blush with brilliant reds, oranges, and yellows, transforming the city’s streets and parks into vibrant, living art. There's something magical about fall—the way the earth seems to slow down, the quiet crunch of leaves underfoot, and the sweet, comforting scent of apple cider and pumpkin spice in the air. It’s a season that invites us to pause, reflect, and celebrate the harvest and beauty all around us.
