If you can correct this article, it will be great, I can't speak English fluently, there are surely a lot of mistakes! thank you!So, I'm Philippe, 21, from Paris, Languages and art student in Strasbourg and one year in Leipzig with the Erasmus program. There I have met Luise, same age, from Leipzig, also a German girl, she studies Textile Design in Halle. She has hitchhiked in North America for one year and I already had many experiences and only for short trip.We hitchhiked from Halle in Germany to Istanbul go and return, from the 4th of August until the 4th of September. We only spent EUR 380 euros for the both + EUR 80 € for the Sziget festival.
72 drivers
* 22/08 Bâgari => Istanbul (TR) 5 cars/ we slept by a couchsurfer
* 26/08 Istanbul => Thessaloniki (GR) 8 cars/ we slept by a couchsurfer/ problem again in the border because we were by foot
* 29/08 Thessaloniki => Sofia (BG) 5 cars/ we slept by a couchsurfer.. In fact we slept after 2 days on the beach 100 km under Thessaloniki, the trip was also longer. 2 Bulgarian guys picked us up, and asked several times for money, and we basically answered "no", finally they let us somewhere else than the initial destination after taking us about EUR 6/7€ 7 and not without angryness
* 30/08 Sofia => Slivnitsa (BG) 1 car/ 2h waiting Why? it was a big cities with too much cars i guess.. then a mushrooms factory director picked us up and proposed us to sleep in the office of his factory. Then we ate and drunk with an employed and spoke simple English and basic Russian, it was great!
* 31/08 Slivnitsa => Belgrade (SB) 1 car/ we crossed the border by foot (it was possible!) the employed let us in the border, there we slept by a couchsurfer
