Tourette’s and snoring?

My boyfriend has Tourette’s. He doesn’t have a lot of vocal tics, but in his sleep he often makes a clicking sound very loudly. He also sometimes wakes up talking loudly, and he snores. So loud. I’m sleeping on the couch right now, there is a full room in between us, and I can still hear him.

It’s becoming a massive problem because I often go to bed after he’s already asleep, and I can’t sleep if he’s snoring in my ear. I used to just nudge him to wake up him when he was snoring, but I feel like that’s not right to continue doing (and he falls back asleep quickly and snores again anyway). 

Is there anything I can do to stop this? I barely sleep anymore because  he just keeps me up all night. And our couch was NOT made for sleeping. Any tips are appreciated.
