What happens if you can’t find two trees? That’s the usual question I get when people are asking about my hammock. I tell them I just put my tent up instead. They always look disappointed with they answer.

While I’m not quite ready to ditch the tent just yet, I’ve only had one night where I had to use it – and that was only because the lady at the camp site was precious about her trees! (Poor trees!).

The other night I bush camped and there was only one tree. I got a bit inventive with the straps and had a very good nights sleep. I really am enjoying sleeping under the stars at the moment, it won’t be the same when I have to start pitching the fly.
