Hammocks are truly nothing but nests swinging between the trees. They're enjoyable for everyone. Simply tie the hammock to the trees around you, and slowly forget the world.
Here are six reasons why you should consider purchasing an ultra-light hammock real soon:
1. Can be set up anywhere
Once you buy a hammock, it's free game. You can set it up pretty much anywhere, and you don't have to pay a thing!
2. Super convenient for students
In between classes it can be hard to find the right spot to hang out. Set up a hammock, study, listen to music, or take a brief nap.
3. Become in touch with nature
I absolutely love being up and close with nature, and hammocking allows me to do that. Close your eyes, and enjoy everything Earth has to offer.
4. Festivals
If you're an active festival-goer, I'm sure you know you're missing out if you don't already have one. They are really awesome to have around a stage that has trees, so you can listen to music in comfort. As well, they come in handy after walking all day and wanting to unwind.
5. Therapeutic
If you're ever feeling stressed, in pain, or just need an escape, hammocking is wonderful for you. It relieves worries and comforts the soul.
6. Social
It's great to meet up with friends every so often and come together. Enjoy one another's company in a different than normal environment. Check out Grand Valley's Hammocking club on Facebook to meet others who enjoy hammocking!
Hammocking is a whole new experience, one that everyone should experience.
