just to brag, I am sitting at an apartment in Ljubljana, Slovenia with some cute Slovenian girls. The main yard is right next door, and i am watching ridable flatcars and a few buckets pass by. I REALLY REALLY want to catch out right now. Did I mention most trains are electric, so no diesel...

Alright, so I've never been to a rally, protest, organized resistance, whatever you want to call it. But still, looking from the outside, what's the point? Smashing some windows, getting arrested...does that really solve anything, other than indicating how pissed off, and ultimately...

Okay, so maybe I'm a bit old fashioned...Maybe I've been using the net longer than nearly anyone on here (except perhaps IBRR)...But can it with the fucking friend requests! "friends" are just that- people I would like to be associated with. That means that, on some level, I know them. Maybe...

I've seen a few folks mention this, and a few more have asked me directly to send them shit. So, who's up for a bit of postcard exchange? I travel a LOT. I'm currently in Hong Kong, and will be heading south to Thailand soon. Obviously, with folks on the road, it can't be a straight swap...

So I found this looking around for good hitching resources... http://www.allstays.com/c/truck-stops-locations-map.htm I'm not sure if it's complete, and it doesn't look like it includes independent truck stops, but it's got the major companies listed. I've not had good luck hitching outta...

I'm putting this under the “other forms of travel” section for a reason: it's not Train-hopping as we know it in the US. In Siberia, it is apparently common and easy (and ALLOWED) to hitch-hiking on cargo ships and freight trains, in the unit. Trains are not manifested ahead of time, but...

For those of you whom are unaware (most), I am currently in Vilnius, Lithuania, on yet another hitch-hiking trip around Europe. While the details are unimportant, the reason I came over was to attend 7/8/9, the second european hitch-hiking festival, held in Odessa, Ukraine on 7/8/9 (8/7/9 in...

So I'm headed SoBo and I was just wondering if anyone had any beta on the route...I'm looking at taking I-15 from Idaho falls all the way through SLC to Vegas, and then RT 93 down to Phoenix...It's def. not the greatest plan, but I've got a few days to make the trip. Anyone familiar with any of...

So I got a nasty sinus infection last week, preventing me from riding for a week (still ongoing) of the best snow I've seen in perhaps 10 years. So, in absolute fury, I figured I'd do some research, and I've found some interesting stuff (Also, I'm allergic to penicillin, so it takes a while to...

"Make sure you don't ride up my ass Bax!" I told him sharply when we stopped. Baxter had been riding my rear tire for nearly 3 miles, and I wasn't comfortable with his riddiculous competition, especially considering I could burn him (road vs mountain bike) in a straightaway. The Erie canal...

Hmm, I was thinkin this over with my brother the other day, and I realized I've got a few funny ones. Anyone else? Stove- I taught a bunch of euro HHer how to build simple alky stoves at a gathering in Paris GunKid- Hung a .223 target outside my door Freshman year of Uni to discourage thieves...

Walking out of the airport, I could feel the eyes of drivers following me as they passed. High up in their SUVs, pickups, cars and van, they slowed, gaped, and drove past. I walked for a few miles, stopping off at a store to use half of my remaining three dollars to buy a snack. 40 miles, a...

So, I comment on a number of other prominent online travel/alt/hitchhiking forums, and I got a message about a post I can't seem to find: :"Please refrain from using expletives in your post. If you want to post, do so. If you want to use expletive, please do not post." Who the fuck is so...

I'm off the road for a few more months, but I do get a few free days strung together here and there...I'm near Bozeman, MT, and I was wondering: Does anyone know of any squats in the area? I haven't spent a decent amount of time (I'm an hour and a half away, through a canyon) in town, but I was...

Hey Y'all, I'm off the road for a bit in Montana making some cash, but I've been spending a lot of time hitching around Europe this past summer, and messing around on the east coast last spring. I started out on the straight & narrow, finished university, got a job, got laid off...And...

So, for those of you unaware, last year in Paris there was a European hitch-hiking gathering: http://hitchwiki.org/en/Project_888 It was a blast. The idea is to promote hitching in a POSITIVE light, and hopefully engage the public a bit to de-mistify/enhance the image of HHing. This year, the...
