tentmate
Canvas dwelling partner
A tentmate is someone who shares a tent with you, typically while camping, on a military deployment, or during outdoor expeditions.
The term implies temporary cohabitation in close quarters: My tentmate snored all night.
Like roommate or bunkmate, it describes a relationship defined by shared sleeping space rather than deeper connection.
