#ChallengeTony: Time To Catch Your Breath
We are now a few months into Tony’s challenge of setting up 10 Tentsile Experience Camps (TECs) around the world, and it seems like a timely pause to recap on where we are. Things have been busy, and ideas for the future continue to look rather exciting!
#BecomeOneOfTheMillion: International Day of Forests!
So where are we three months into this campaign? Well, as one might hope, there is lots of good news!

#EchoChamberDisruption
Last year we all became aware of the “Echo Chamber” effect, when we find ourselves presented on social media only with news and posts that closely align with our existing views and beliefs - thus reinforcing them. This year, we are going to smash that Echo Chamber!!! Join us, for #EchoChamberDisruption.
#BecomeOneOfTheMillion - Who To Pick To Plant?
So it’s one thing saying we want to plant trees; it’s quite another actually doing it. Turns out, repopulating the planet with trees is not as straight forward as one initially thinks – even for people in the tree-loving business!
#ChallengeTony - Nordics. Beach. Jungle. Mountain.
So, as you will know from the launch of #ChallengeTony, we’ve challenged Tony to set up 10 Tentsile Experience Camps by the end of 2017...

A New Year’s Resolution: Tentsile aims for 1 MILLION people in trees!
We’re setting ourselves a new challenge, a Tentsile Challenge: From January 2017, we will aim to get 1 MILLION people camping in trees within the next 5 years. That’s right, 1 million people, 5 years. Who said ambition was for the faint-hearted?...
Secret Spots
The clever design and easy handling of our Tentsile Stingray meant we managed to set up camp within a few minutes. As you can see, a Tree Tent was perfect for this terrain. Hidden by branches, we were invisible. From this unique secret spot, we could see the stars through the tree tops as they lulled us to sleep after a hard first day...
