* I Started hitchhiking in may 2009 aged 27, so far more than 30,000 km
* Longest rides :
- 1,700 377 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 bush camp to rest overnight)- ??1,000 km from [[Dijon]], [[France]] to [[Prague]], [[Czech Republic]] in september 2010, even making some tourism with my drivers in [[Aldace]]- ??670 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
- 1,200 300 km from [[Broome]], [[Australia]] to somewhere between [[Kununarra]] and [[Katherine]], [[Australia]] in around 15 hours, in july 2011- ??1,000 km from [[Dijon]], [[France]] to [[Prague]], [[Czech Republic]] in september 2010 (with only a 5 km ride plus a 1,000km 995 km ride!)
* Fastest trips :
- 4 3 hours and 15 minutes to go ??670 km from [[Berlin]], [[Germany]] to [[Karlsruhe]], [[Germany]] in July 2009(average 205 km/h!!)- 3 hours to go 500 460 km (average 150 km /h) 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)!
