Thanks - that's a nice and simple explanation. I can get a hammock stand and try sleeping on a hammock every day.

Hi all,

I read in Mike's book that hammock is "not really the best solution for a permanent bed". I'm curious why this is, and whether there are any alternatives for mattress-based sleeping.

I am guessing that using a hammock that can be stowed away would significantly reduce construction required in a blank state van or bus, so I'd like to try it out first, unless it's known to cause issues.

All I can google are benefits of hammocks, and the explanations are so pro-hammock that I'm

And the speaker here is a complete noobie at van dwelling. I am currently a dreamer who is serious about getting started and doing a lot of research. With love for cycling and the ridiculous real estate price in the Bay Area, California, it's increasingly making sense to try this lifestyle to take the most advantage of the ample nature here.

Thanks all in advance!

Josh
