I love deep dark places. My favorite memory is of visiting the Grand Canyon Caverns. I loved when they turned out the lights and it was absolutely pitch black. A dorm like that would be amazing for me. No street lights, no car noise, no windows for people to peek into. However I can see why it would make a bunch of non troglodyte people feel weird.
Decommissioned lookout Bunker stations here in the cliffs over looking the sf golden gate have extremely deeply sunken thick concrete buried barracks. we turned off the flash lights and it's the darkest I've been in and absolutely quiet with a group of 30+ kids and chaperones. Had better ears back then so no ringing ears. And sunken structures have the benefit of about 65° stable temperature compared to the cold outside air
I've had tinnitus for as long as I can remember. I kind of like the sound of the ringing. Reminds me of tibet singing bowls or a buddhist bell. The sound of my life.
