I'm from a little mountain outside Seattle.
Thunkings
I'm wicked stoked for hitching against capitalism for humanity (&) I get ill peeved when I find myself entrenched in the same redundant conversations with folks ever and ever anon; this makes me want to give up the auto for the train. I began hitchhiking to save the environment. Planes emit at minimum 8 times more greenhouse gases per passenger per mile than overland travel: hitchhiking, like dumpster-diving, is carbon-negative.
"Si vas con miedo, encontraras peligro." It ain't about karma strictly. It's just that folks can recognize your eyes & they know when you're rattled

Dreams &c
I'm trying to figure out what separates the grain from the chaff, in metaphoric long-hitchhiking-trips terms. Sometimes I have a blast, and others I feel awful bandying about. I want to hitchhike on boats and I've lost faith in airhitching, (but maybe I'm not a lost cause for it); want to hitch around the world: Panama-NZ-AU-PNG-Vietnam-Thailand-India-RU-Georgia-RU-Scandinavia-Ladonia-Christiania- (england?)Poland-Europe,etc-Greece-Israel-Mecca-Egypt-Ethiopia-Kenya-SA-Congo-WestAfrica,etc-Morroco-Spain-France-French Guyana- Surinam-(brazil?)-Venezuela-Carribean,etc-& back home.
I made a website this week. It is thusly: www.enormousface.com
