I must have noise to go along with going to sleep. Usually thats an audio book or long-form video essay type YouTube videos. I wear one earbud to bed if I'm sleeping at night with my girlfriend or just blare it from the TV if I'm sleeping alone during the day (rotating shift). I feel like when I don't have engaging audio and I'm trying to sleep I can't quiet my mind enough to sleep. A fan or random ambient noise isn't enough for me.

I could never live in a loud city, especially one as loud as NYC.

    I live steps from multiple Michelin starred restaurants and some of the best museums and galleries on earth, and am surrounded by pieces of every culture on the planet; opportunity flows like water. It's a very demanding place to live but I couldn't trade it for anything
