Who else remembers doing this as a kid? Wrapping yourself up in a hammock like a human burrito, flipping upside down, and just hanging there giggling until someone came to rescue you — or joined in for a spin?
This hammock was actually a Father’s Day pressie for Chad years ago and it’s one of those rare treasures that’s stood the test of time. It’s travelled with us — tucked into suitcases, packed into vans — because there’s always a good palm tree somewhere calling out to be relaxed under. 🌴
Lately, as the afternoons in Bali have cooled down just a little, our backyard has become our go-to chill space — and this hammock? It's been the perfect addition. Whether it’s little feet climbing in to turn it into a spaceship or reading nook, or Chad and I sneaking a moment of peace with a cuppa... it’s become a space for everyone.
Sometimes the simplest things — like a piece of fabric strung between two trees — create the best family memories. 💛

Who else remembers cocooning yourself in a hammock like a giggling little burrito, flipping upside down, and waiting for someone to either rescue you—or jump in for a laugh? It’s one of those timeless childhood joys, and for our family, a well-traveled hammock has brought those moments full circle.
Years ago, we gifted Chad a hammock for Father’s Day—nothing fancy, just sturdy, soft, and packable. Since then, it’s followed us from coastlines to mountaintops, and now, it’s made Bali its home. Tucked easily into a suitcase or slung into the back of a van, it’s always there when we need a patch of calm—or chaos.
As Bali’s afternoons cool and the golden light filters through the palms, our backyard becomes a little oasis of slow living. The kids race to claim the hammock first, turning it into a pirate ship, rocket, or reading nook. Some days, it’s Chad and I stealing a few quiet moments with a cup of kopi, swaying gently in the breeze.
This simple sling of fabric strung between two trees has turned into so much more—it’s our family’s reset button. Whether you're traveling through Bali with little ones or simply looking for that perfect way to slow down, we can’t recommend packing a hammock enough. It’s lightweight, versatile, and—trust us—it becomes a hub for some of the sweetest travel memories.
After all, amid temple explorations and beach adventures, sometimes it's the backyard giggles and upside-down grins that leave the biggest imprint.
