#1: music on the beach – yes various groups like for you to enjoy their playlist. Maybe sometimes you’re in that mood, but you’ll have to find less populated, remote beaches to have tranquility. 

#2: undiscipline dogs on the beach that bark nonstop – yes, people don’t have a clue how obnoxious their little buddy is to all those around them. If you can’t control them, don’t bring them.

#3: screaming motorcycles  – we covered this in November’s edition, click here.

#4: honking at the taxi driver who stops suddenly – I’m guilty myself. 

#5: way too intoxicated hecklers at the local bar – you know the type…they don’t care and will be loud and obnoxious no matter what.  Especially if it’s early in the evening and you’re trying to enjoy a meal or football game. Do you friend a favor and take them home.

TURN IT UP:

#1: waves crashing on the beach

#2: sound of birds, howler monkeys

#3: the powerful sound of the waterfalls 

#4: hearing “gracias” and “buen dia para ti”

#5: people having a good time
