Idk. There’s something about a place so quiet you can hear goats in the distance, on occasion, and deer, chewing.

Sure. But I don't want to live there full time. I want to be able to walk to the bar, take a bus to the show, and so on.

Honestly, the distant sounds of humans can also be comforting in a white noise kind of way. Sometimes I think about how they're all part of someone's life story.
