The easiest way to find relaxation in what already seems to be paradise: find two trees and hammock.
I love what hammocking has brought to our lives, we set our hammock up anywhere: gardens, beaches, lakeside, and even within a tidepool. The feeling of "Just hanging in there," doesnt have to be such a negative saying anymore. You can literally kick back and enjoy the island views from your makeshift floating beds. Hammocking is starting to take off, especially here in the Islands. Surrounded by many trees, hammocking seems like a no-brainer however, it took awhile before this social event became popular. Now, Instagram has dozens of photos with #hammocking, and although its no longer a "fashion trend," I see it as a lifestyle.
Why Hammocking is a lifestyle...
Hammocking can be considered a lifestyle if you have a tendency to bring it on every adventure you go on. Like I said in the beginning, hammocking can happen in a garden, a tidepool, and on the beach side. It all depends on whether you're willing to bring the 0.4 ounce floating bed with you. Just be sure to have your ropes secured whenever you decide to hang. A few things to consider are: 1) if secure the hammock correctly, YOU WILL NOT FALL. 2) be sure that the structure youre securing the hammock to is secure itself. 3) You CAN have two people at once in a hammock; great for cuddling. 4) Do not hammock intoxicated; just for safety precautions.
Why you should purchase a Hammock IMMEDIATELY...
Simply take a look at the photos within this blog. Once you buy one, you wont regret your decision. Remember, like any lifestyle choice, you must implicate the act of hammocking. Take the hammock with you on all adventures. You never know when you'll have a great opportunity to hammock in some unique locations and of course, take some wicked photos of your hammocking adventures.
