Just wondering anyone ever hitchiked anywhere? is it safe? by all means im not attempting it, or ever plan to, but im just wondering. Isn't like sometime the people who agrees to give you a ride expect you to be a prostitute or something?

my bro traveled for long ass distances hitchhiking, going to different countries etc.
he even went to Iran but got stopped on the border since he didn't have some specific type of visa
i think it's pretty crazy i wouldntve done it, but he told me there's whole community out there that even has internet website and pretty much u can go anywhere in the world and there will be another hitchhiker who will share his house with you. Cool?

Most people I think would say that it is unsafe in this day and age. Or at the very least not very smart. Watch horror movies to see why

Totally cool.

I've been hitch hiking / couch surfing for years. For me it's the perfect way to travel. You meet the most interesting people, you have instant contact to locals, it's fast, it's free, it's fun.

About safety:
You have to decide for yourself. What's going to happen? You can have a good look at people you go with. If you are unsure, there a dozents of safety-tipps and tricks, like unsuspicious questions you can ask to find out whether someone is genuinly offering a ride.

Well most people are stupid or at least not very smart and watch too many horror movies.

My own statistics what kind of people will give you a ride:
- bored business people
- older couples who hitch hiked them selfes in the 60's
- cool, young people
- harmless weird people who just want to talk about their religion or something

Bottom line: For pretty much any part of Europe, it's totally safe. Especially in Eastern countries where hitch hiking is still really common. Totally random people will give you ride and stop at the next restaurant and invite you to a full meal with everything. Or offer to come over to their home for dinner.

In the US the biggest problem are in fact the police. Hitch hiking is legal in most states in the US, the problem is that most people including the cops don't know about it.

A few times, never very far though and definitely never alone.

Lots of fun.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer
