You can't see the galley from that seat, and it does give direct aisle access. To avoid adjacent glances you will find a screen that can go up, just press the top button 60 seconds after take off - works for me at least.
Oh I think it was Row 14 that time (can't remember specifically - different route and layout, of course). I moved from A to D that time (wasn't busy) and fixed the strange vibrations-in-headphones situation.
Views on 11A by WTP cabin? Looks another maybe sensible option. Although noise likely worse than 5.
I'm going to be going in circles for a while haha.
Thanks for advice.
