Heyhey! So after hitchhiking through nearly 50 countries, I thought it would be time to share my tips on how to get rides. I use hitchhiking mainly to meet the locals and am of course happy to save money in more expensive countries while traveling on a budget. Hopefully you find this post interesting and I would be happy to hear your feedback and own experiences! Maybe I have missed something important on my list?

How to hitchhike

Cheers,

I think it would be unethical to invite people to learn about hitchhiking without providing some disclaimers, including:

  • It is illegal in many places
  • There is nontrivial risk associated with it


But wow, that's a lot of hitchhiking Tak3r.

mmm... the first case a lot of people might not realize.

and it's arrogant to dismiss that there is always an inherent risk to hitchhiking even in places you arbitrarily deem "safe"
