My daughter told me the other night that she could sleep better if she slept with the window open letting the air in. That made me think about when I was going to go to a beach with a for and at night we were going to have the windows open so we could feel the breeze from the water and here the waves! I Watch a lot of the shows on HGTV and hear people talking about living in or near the beach where you can at least hear and smell the water. is a calmer and more peaceful way of living. Do you live near the beach or water where you can hear it smell it? How do you like it?

@dfollin I do not live near the beach. If I want to go to the beach I have to take a bus to one of our cities.

The closest beach to us is about an hour away and we cannot take a bus to it.

@Hannihar Sitting on my patio I get no sun and there are no electric plugs to plug in the music.

@dfollin I do not mind not going to the beach in summer. I sit out on my porch and get the sun and enjoy it and listen to music and do not have to pack anything or go on a bus.

I would love to live close enough to the water to hear and smell it, we are supposed to go to Galveston next month and am hoping we get close enough to the beach.

I would love that. I want to go to one of those vacations where your room is wide open... like St. Lucia. We were in Cuba recently. There was no screen on our balcony door. I probably would have left it open had there been a screen because one night when I was standing out there a gecko took a run around the top of my balcony which sent me running inside. Wouldn't leave the door open after that. LOL! Honestly, I have a sound machine that I rarely use but when I do find the need to use it to help me sleep, it is on the sounds of the waves.

@dfollin In Cuba they spray the grounds every day to keep the insects away. It's pretty awesome actually,

I used to have a sound machine and would love to get another one Right now I am listening to Subliminal messages with ocean and nature sounds on them, mostly ocean my phone drone Amazon Prime.. My aunt and uncle went to Greece one year. The hotel had no AC, so they had to open the windows, but they had no screens like what you described about Cuba. and they were are up by mosquitoes.

I live on an island in the middle of a river in a huge city and a highway nearby and so the quality of the air is not the best.

@shubhu3 They are beautiful! It depends on the roads, I am scared of heights. They make me dizzy

I do not live close enough to the water to hear it but I love when we go camping on the beach in the summer. The sounds of the waves is so peaceful. There is always a nice breeze too. It is my favorite place to camp.
