Hitchhiking: is an interesting form of travel to say the least. The people you meet along the way, the places you end up going... & everything in between. I tend to over romantacize things I haven't had extensive experience in yet.
But here's why. Although I've caught more than just a couple rides in my day- ever since I've hooked up with my most recent road dog; he's more than just a little against me on this topic.
I can fully comprehend all the risks that I could possibily face while asking strangers for a lift; but I'm also gifted with the ability to more often than not correctily assess my situations & my potentional survival ratio. Not to mention that when your life is in danger, you'd be surprized by the things some people go through in order to survivie.
I'm ready to take these risks.
He's not. Granted I weigh nothing sort of 110 lbs. & he feels as though I'm his responsability... but he's mine as well. Would any one be able to offer me any tips or information on this subject so that I may be able to more properly persuade him? We don't really have any other modes of travel that he'd be willing to take on at the moment... & God knows I wouldn't leave without him.
I'm not really a big fan of pushing people to do things they're not comfortable with.. but at the least a little bit more of information would be helpful with allowing he & I to see the bigger picture of what we could be potentially be doing.
