I liked your post for two reasons. 1) I am afraid that if I take a hammock, I might get skunked as far as finding two trees (or poles) the right distance apart or strong enough. You saying that you had 100% ability to find trees is comforting.
2) I look at other tourists posts on the crazy guy on a bike website. Since this is the richest/ wealthiest country, the preponderance of the posters on there go to a lot of hotels, and maybe I am reading into your response, but especially with hotel rates going up 50% since 2019, hotels, in my opinion is that they are financial landmines. It was nice to hear from someone who has a strong commitment to camping.
