Belize
,Adding info about taxis
[[File:Katja hitchhiking in Belize.JPG|thumb|left|200px|Hitchhiker [[Katja and Augustas|Katja]] on an empty rural road in Belize.]]'''Belize''' is a small country in [[Central America]]. It borders to [[Mexico]] in the north and [[Guatemala]] in the west.
Hitchhiking in Belize is very logical and appears to be very good and easy, even locals do it. There are plenty of speedbumps (just called ''bumps''), so each time you walk out of a town it's better to thumb at one of these. Some hitchhikers say that a small token payment may be exchanged. Others have not experienced this at all. Public transport is inexpensive but quite slow considering the size of the country. Cars with green license plates are taxis. Small smart mini cars tend to be taxis for short distances.
People in Belize are very friendly and many of them are proud of their country. Try to show respect to Belize and it's citizens and you'll find out that this tiny country has a lot of things to offer.
