Travelling can be stressful. Bustling airports, packed trains, babies crying on buses — there’s a lot to take in. I have a love-hate relationship with commuting. While I love watching the world go by and hearing the chatter of people walking past me, if I’m stressed or miss a connection, I need complete silence until I can figure out my next move. Because while I’m a pretty calm person, there’s something about an airport that brings out a different side of me.
Luckily, as part of my job, I’m tasked with trying out some of the best noise-cancelling earbuds, meaning I always have a pair on hand to block out noise around me. Since I travel a lot, they have become somewhat of a saving grace for me. A couple of weeks ago, I did a lot of travelling, and I got to put two of the best flagship earbuds to the test to find out which are best for commuting. And there can only be one winner.
