It started when I was a kid being a boy scout and the type of child who was building secret hide-outs all the time. Later on, my years in the army boosted the interest even more.

YES! I absolutely love every single aspect of hammock camping. I get a better sleep, I feel rejuvenated in the morning and I feel more in contact with the nature around me than if I camped in a tent.

I’ve got a few “secret spots” with amazing views over the fiord. I usually get there by canoe or kayak.
