I have recently moved abroad and after 2 weeks in a hotel-apartment, into a new place.

Here is the problem, I am not sure why, but I feel uncomfortable here and like I cannot relax.

I moved here in order to study so after a week of feeling like all my energy went into coping with the place and feeling like my studies really suffered from poor sleep and mood, went back to the hotel apartment where I felt better and could immediately relax.

I am back in the apartment now because itīs school holiday time anyway, but immediately felt unwell again.

A problem is: It is pretty noisy, you can hear the street in almost every room and even though it is not like really loud, I feel like it is constantly taking my attention towards the sound. Then there are airplanes flying really close to the house even in late hours (no night-flight forbid here), there are also constructions in and outside the house and generally you hear more of the neighbours here, like dogs bark etc.

The other thing is, and this actually quite beautiful, it has very large windows and it is on the 9th floor, so you get a lot of light and view of the city, but I also feel like it is taking my attention to what is going on there instead of feeling more calm and centered within me.

The place is actually very beautiful, so I feel stupid for complaining about it, yet I feel not calm inside so I have considered moving again. But I donīt know if I am being too sensitive about it and should give it more time or money to soundproof windows e.g., but not sure if I should invest anything in it, if I might really have to move anyway......???

My main focus here is my studies that are very important to me, so I want to be in a place where I can really focus on that, and Iīm not sure if I will be able to or not.

Also, there is only 3 weeks school break so if I want to move, I need to do it soon, so I can spend my energy on school once it starts again.

Any ideas or advice/experience would be largely appreciated!

Thank you so much
