Window: cool nature stuff
Fireplaces: perfect for cooler days
Chillhop: music and animation to chill out with
Piano Jazz: could listen to this all day (and have!)
Rain: love this when it’s raining but too cold to open the windows
Night walk: walking in cities, at night. I especially like the back-alley ones
Walking: as close as I’ll ever get to some of these places
Brown Noise: perfect for naps
