Hitchhiking trips:

Контрабандата с цигари

Момче с джип – до Шела на Пазарджик. He waited for while we were still crossing the road!

First Time Sailing

I cycled from west to east of France to find a boat for Ireland. An old guy from UK offered me to go towards La Rochelle. As I had no experience sailing, I took that offer and sailed two days with him and his daughter. Was great!

Swedish camper

First time I got picked up by a Swedish! The spot was terrible, the road tiny, and he had a huge camper, which made it even more surprising :D

Sweetest toothless man ever picked me up in Sofia. On the way, when realizing that I am going to spend long time on the road, he got me a black coffee, a croissant and a few cigarettes. If all that wasn't enough he listened to heavy metal and rock music <3 Great way to start your hh day.

From the Serbian-Hungarian border to St Pölten in Austria

My hh day did not end up as planned (being hosted in Szeged and going to see the city the next day before continuing my trip to Frankfurt) although started very good, with wonderful 2 first rides.

After spending the weekend to the Ecaussysteme Festival in Gignac (en Quercy) I HHed back to Limoges. Got picked up in less than 5min by 2 women who were also at the festival. Nice, easy and fast ride. Friendly people.

Not a lot of cars on route

As winter was starting, there weren t a lot of cars on the route. Almost all cars went to Puerto Aysen. At the end, for the last 50 kilometers we had to take a bus-a-like thing.

Problems with borders

Nobody wanted to take us over the border. So we had to camp in Chile. The next day we decided to walk the 5 kilometers over the border. At the end two very kind french tourist took us to El Calafate
