    Hi from France

    Hello,

    I've been led there, as many people I guess, thanks to Mr Sean "Shug" Emery's videos on youtube.

    New to hammock hiking I just recieved my first sleeping nest last week (a Ticket to the Moon single), I should recieve the silnylon fabric tomorow to make my DIY tarp and some bug net to upgrade the hammock.

    great forum with a lot of stuff to read and share !

    see you !

    (my brain has not been switched on "english mode" for a long time, hope there are not too much mistakes)

    Bonjour,

    Je adore France.

    My wife and I toured there last year and fell in love with the country, people, and culture. We walked and road the trains around the whole entire country in a big circle, staying in local towns/villages/cities, and then branching out from them as we went along.

    I love Chamonix, it was my favorite place of all. And surprisingly enough I really like Paris, and I don't like big cities at all. My wife loved Paris, but she is from Philadelphia, so its understandable.

    Were already trying to plan another trip there as soon as we can. I would like to stay about 3 months...or the rest of my life in Chamonix

    Welcome, from Spokane.

    Hope you like it here.
    I miss my 4.8Lb base weight as a ground dweller...But I sure DON'T MISS the ground.

    Welcome from NY.

    France is a beautiful country. I spent a term abroad there back in my high school days. We spent about a month in Paris, then travelled south through the Loire Valley for about a week and a half, and ended with a month in Pau.

    I would love to go back again.

    Salut le Chuck

    bienvenu sur le forum.
    Tu verras, une fois le hamac essayé, c'est adopté (du moins pour les nuits passées en solo )

    les nuits à la belle étoile dans le confort, ça n'a pas de prix

    Salut Joe,

    effectivement le peu que j'ai essayé me parait très confortable, plus un gain de poids interressant. reste a faire un test en "live".

    ciao.
