Feel free to ask me any questions. My plans of travels :October to December 2011 : MalaysiaDecember 2011 to March 2012 : IndiaMarch 2012 to June 2012 : Iran == Hitchhiking Experience ==* Hitchhiked from [[France]] to [[Iran]] in 2009, through [[Belgium]], [[Germany]], [[Poland]], back to [[France]], then [[Italy]], Balkans, [[Greece]], [[Turkey]].* Hitchhiked in [[Australia]] in 2011 mostly around [[Western Australia]] and [[Northern Territory]] for several months. I've hitchhiked the [[Gibb River Road]], an outback road running 800km from [[Broome]] to [[Kununarra]].* Other bits in [[Europe]] and South-East [[Asia]]. == Stats ==* I Started hitchhiking in may 2009 aged 27, so far more than 30,000 km* Longest rides : - 1,700 km from [[Derby]]'s turn-off on the [[Great Northern Highway]], [[Australia]] to [[Katherine]], [[Australia]] in july 2011 (all the way with the same truck driver, but we stopped in a la lignebush camp to rest overnight)- ??km from [[Dijon]], [[France]] to [[Prague]], [[Czech Republic]] in september 2010- ??km from [[Berlin]], [[Germany]] to [[Karlsruhe]], [[Germany]] in July 2009* Longuest distance in one day :- 1,500 km from [[Wroclaw]], [[Poland]] to [[Macon]], [[France]] with a detour by [[Berlin]], [[Germany]] in around 30 hours (I didn't sleep at all) in july 2009- 1,200 km from [[Broome]], [[Australia]] to somewhere between [[Kununarra]] and [[Katherine]], [[Australia]] in around 15 hours, in july 2011- ??km from [[Dijon]], [[France]] to [[Prague]], [[Czech Republic]] in september 2010 (with only a 5 km ride plus a 1,000km ride!)* Fastest trips :- 4 hours to go ??km from [[Berlin]], [[Germany]] to [[Karlsruhe]], [[Germany]] in July 2009- 3 hours to go 500 km from [[Lyon]], [[France]] to [[Paris]], [[France]] with 3 Romanians who were listening to 120dB techno music, smoking as crazy, windows shut and overheating the car... Happy it was fast!* Worst waiting time :- 2 days waiting for a ride in [[Gascoyne Junction]], [[Australia]], trying to go to Mount Augustus, 300 km of dirt road further. I eventually gave up after no car had passed and figured out I wouldn't have enough food to make the return trip (no shops in Gascoyne Junction)!- == Contact ==* my travel blog : [[www.tourto.fr|www.tourto.fr]]* facebook : [[www.facebook.com/tourto|Tourto]]* Couchsurfing : [[www.couchsurfing.org/toortoth|Toortoth]]* GlobalFreeLoaders :
