Where you sleep influences recall

[Sol46]

Does anyone know or have a guess on if where you sleep influences your dream recall. Because whenever I sleep in my room my recall is awful and I don't remember anything, but when I sleep at a friends house my recall is amazing and I remember everything. Please try to help me

I assume that when you sleep at your friends you stay up later and wake up in all ease without too much to worry about yet? Whenever I awake being home alone I recall dreams much better; No fuss going on around me, makes it easier for the delicate dreammemories to resurface in my experience.

all i know is that sleeping positions in bed matter for me not really where i sleep.

I seem to recall more dreams and have more lucids if I sleep in a different place than I'm used to, though I can't pin a reason on why.

My guess is that you sleep lighter when you are in a strange place because you are not as comfortable mentally and physically. This is very common. You can also develop associations with sleeping in certain places. Lots of people go to sleep on a couch or a guest room when they want to LD. I used to cash in on this by sleepnig in strange places as much as possible. Park benches, friends houses, lawns, hallways. That was when I was on a polyphasic sleep schedule, and really hard core about dreaming.
