Travel Hammock / Bivi - DD Hammocks
Advantages over a tent:
- With no metal bits and with its smaller size, the potential of fitting all camping gear into a single aircraft cabin bag beckons. For cheap destinations, avoiding the cargo hold to store a rucksack containing a tent can almost half the flight cost
- May not need a rucksack, just a single sports bag
- May feel a bit weird using it at a camp site, hence would likely end up on saving on camp site costs too
- May be quite comfortable to sleep in?
- Seems practical for warm climes. If there are no trees to hang from, it also serves as a bivvy (small tent)
- Good stealth factor
- Even more freedom than a tent - no more needing to return to a camp site in the evening, or even need to search for a camp site
