And we want to get away to nature to experience calm and silence. But when you come here to the jungle I want you to be ready. It’s not silent here, and in fact it’s much louder than the city.
Concrete doesn’t speak, glass doesn’t make noise (unless the wind is hitting it just right 😉 ). But nature does. And the jungle is FULL to the brim with life! All manner of bugs and critters chirp and click and vibrate and croak and sing! Today the cicadas alone produced 75dB of sound! It was so incredibly loud!
Night-time is a beautiful symphony of all the noise. All that vibration. And it’s one of the things I miss the most when I’m not in the jungle. The noises at night. It might sound creepy, without the experience of it. And yet, when I’m in the city it’s eerily quiet at night. Almost as though life itself is scarce.
So come and experience the noises of the jungle. Forget your apprehension. Such intensely loud sound never made you feel so at ease, so happy, and so immersed in LIFE.
