Hello,

My name is Lotte I'm from Holland and a couple of weeks ago I received my (first) hammock.
It all started when I was looking for lightweight camping gear for the trip I'm going to make this summer, and pretty soon I found an article on this forum. Did a lot of research and ordered a Grand Trunk double, attached some hooks in my bedroom and since that moment I was sold.

I also did a lot of research on full time hammock sleeping and after 2 descend nights of sleep (normally I wake up every hour or 2) in my hammock I ditched my mattress! I have never slept better!

Welcome from Mississippi. I lived in Wassenaar for a while. Beautiful country with lots of great memories of my time there. Hope you enjoy your hammock and the hammock life.

Hello from the US.
I sometimes work in the area of Hilversum, seems like a great place for a hammock!

Hi Lotte,

Welcome to the forum!

Another Dutch hanger here, I have been hammock camping for a year now. Maybe we should organise a Dutch hang sometime, there are quite q few hangers in The Netherlands now.
