There is a cargo connection from [[Reykjavík]] to [[Halifax]], [[Canada]] provided by [http://www.eimskip.is www.eimskip.is]. Not sure if it can be hitched, but sometimes it's possible to get one-time jobs on board!
 
=== Plane ===
The cheapest low cost companies flying to Iceland depart from Denmark (Copenhagen) and U.K. (London, Manchester, Edinburgh) and most often if you have to pay for your trip is so much cheaper than the ferry (up to 50€ one way from/to Scotland!). There is a precedent from a french tv program ("Nus et culottés", search for episode, "avionstop en islande" or similar) where the two protagonists try to hitchhike private planes from several scottisch airport and in the end do succeed from the most northern one, [[Wick]]. As for any different means of transportation that is not car (e.g. boat hitchhiking) the waiting time are so much longer, but if you are lucky you could find a lift in a couple of days; plus it appears the scottisch locals as the airport staff is nice welcoming and willing to help hitchhikers. Give it a try!
