hitchhiking

Hey all! Just to introduce myself, I’m Snaves, I’ve been travelling with a small group of anarchist families since I was around 9, and now I’m significantly older then 9 I wanna set up my first solo adventure. Now someone normal might say ok let’s take it easy, why not try and hitchhike around...

Ive already hitched twice on freeways, im looking for advice for large highways like I90 because thats the next goal.

Seems like the question comes up fairly often here- Any tips on hitchhiking? I would first suggest people check out the Hitchhiking Megathread sticky post at the top of the Hitchhiking Forum that @Matt Derrick has compiled. It's a fantastic list of resources on the subject that are quite useful...

Ive hitch hiked twice before and some tips would be greatly appreciated👍

It would be nice to not travel alone, im freight hopping out of Spokane Wa some time in the beginning of this summer. This is an invitation to join me on this trip.(any advice for the rails and hitch hiking would be greatly appreciated:)

My names Max and I was born and raised in Denver Colorado. All my life I’ve had some pretty gnarly health issues that have lead me to this position in life. I’m physically capable of working sometimes, and other times not so much when I’m having a flare up. I don’t use any drugs other than the...

Would it be worthwhile for me to hitchhike up to Cheyenne from Denver to find more plentiful trains? I’m somewhat new to being on the road and wondering if Cheyenne might be a better place to do some trainspotting to get out where it’s a bit warmer at night. Been freezing my ass off a lot lol...

So.. little trip update for ya'll on some traveling I did this last week. So I came down to the states from Alaska for a few weeks to visit family and friends and get a break from the cold and dark -- Jan/Feb is when the winter really starts to drag on. Ended up in LA with the intention of...

basically i was camped out at a spot where i thought the trains would slow down but after about 9 hours every single train coming out the yard was going way too quick so i decided to hitch to the other side of town at the other bnsf line, im walking down this long county road for like 2 hours...

When I was a wee lad, maybe 12 or 13, I remember thinking about starting a band and living out of a van, it sounded much better than subscribing to corporate drudgery. I grew up in abject poverty, going as many days without food as with, and violence was always around the corner. Even in an...

tryna get catch a train but don’t know anyone who can help, anyone hitting the 509 soon lmk

I'm desperate for a ride, I have to be in St. Louis, Missouri by the 24th of this month. I currently live in Springfield, Missouri. Anyone heading in that direction? I have cash to help out with gas. Please keep your fingers crossed for me! If you are able to help me out in anyway...

Hey everyone.. Been lurking on here off and on for the past like 8 years, had a previous account that I can't remember now. Heard through the grapevine that StP was shutting down, and I was stoked to find that it's still going. Just saying hey and interested in getting involved in the...

Hello travelers! I'm currently in Nashville probably gonna hitch west to Memphis but my goal is to get to San Francisco with a little detour up north through Denver/Boulder toward Bozeman Montanna and then cutting west to the Pudget Sound area of Washington and riding the coast south toward SF...

Hey guys! Do any of you have any experience hitchhiking Europe, Middle east, Asia in the last 6 months? I'm thinking of hitchhiking from Sweden to Vietnam, starting in July. But I haven't traveled for a while and I'm not really that updated on the status regarding Covid in most countries. Are...

I've recently stumbled upon the concept of hitchhiking races. On Hitchwiki they've listed 29 races that have happened in the past but none of them happened in the United States! Do you think it's viable to have a hitchhiking race in the US, particularly from coast to coast? Would you join the...

Not sure if this is the most accurate place to post and hoping this post can get the most views here. I need my Prius Prime driven from Los Angeles, California to Flint, Michigan (or close by place in midwest eg Detroit Chicago we can talk about it) sometime mid February or earlier. Looking for...
