''''Italic text''''== Sleeping ==Couchsurfing community is one of the biggest in Italy, you should not have problem to find a host.
Also Parco Nord (tramway 31 or 4, taking from yellow subway zara or maciachini) can be a nice spot to camp. big enough to hide, lots of tap water. Avoid Parco Lambro (east may also be a good place for free camping. However, there is risk of the city) if u can, cause rather if u can hide pretty easily some crimes did happen more than elsewheretheft in either park. All other parks inside the city (Giardini di Porta Venezia, Parco Sempione, Parco Solari) are closed during the night. '[[User:Fedecicco|Fedecicco]]'
To my experience, as i spend my time there quiet often, Parco Lambro is a good spot to Free Camping. It's very close to highway and train station of Lambrate. Even in Parco Nord little crimes happen, but in Lambro you cand find different places isolated and during summer on week-ends little sound system play music with their sound so you can have fun and find many local people to talk with.

== Hitching out ==
From the city center, take the metro #2 (the green line) towards ''Cologno'' or ''Gessate''. Get out at ''Gobba''.
=== East towards [[Verona]] {{European Route Number|64}} ===
If you want to go eastwards direction east towards [[Verona]] on the ([[A4 (Italy)|A4]]) , try this: the following. At the end of the platform of ''Gobba'', right where you get out of the train, there begins a bridge over the motorway leading to an extra train going which only goes to some certain a hospital. It costs you ~ EUR 1,20. Getting 20€. After you get out there (at the hospital), you follow the stream of people and go up the first steps you see (round ones). Look for a high place - – from there you can see the a petrol station. Best It is best is to ask someone to show you the best way down to the petrol station.
An alternative and easier option is to take the metro 2 (''the green line'') to '''Cologno Nord'''. It doesn't really matter which exit you leave the station by, as long as you are walking '''north'''. Follow the road for about 5 or 10 minutes until you get to the beginning of the bridge over the motorway. Rather than actually crossing the bridge, you turn right, off the road, and walk along the raised grassy area beside the motorway. After 4 or 5 minutes you will have reached a gas station.
=== Southeast towards [[Bologna]] {{European Route Number|35}} ===
=== West towards [[Torino]] {{European Route Number|64}} ===
At the end of Via Antonio Sant'Ellia (metro station QT8 on the red line) close to the park Monte Stella, there is a big slipway to the full motorway interchange between A8 and A4. So it is possible to hitch to west, north and east from there. Stand on the curb before the slipway splits with a sign. There is a street lamp nearby, so it is possible to hitch at night. N.B. occassionally there is street prostitution on the other side of the road close to stadium San Carlo.
Another good place where you can catch more westwards traffic is at metro stop Molino Dorino. There is a roundabout which splits the ramps and car park driveways. Stand at the traffic light close to Via Fratelli Rizardi with a sign. Because of the traffic light, cars need stop longer before ramping onto the motorway tangenziale ovest A50, so you have more chance to be seen and longer time for the driver to think.
The only hostel hospitality exchange community is one of the biggest in Milan is at QT8 red metro stationItaly, but like all hostels in europe you should be not have problems finding a bit expensivehost on Couchsurfing etc.
If you hitch at Monte Stella, there are plenty of long benches in the park and a public water tap nearby. It's a good place to stay on a summer night.
