== Other useful info ='''Toilets''': like in the rest of Israel toilets in public places are usually free. In Rehovot there are two shopping malls- a big one (which also serves as the main bus station) and a smaller one a little bit to the north on Herzel street, both with toilets. The toilets in the train station are also free but you need to have a ticket in order to get to them.

The entire east side of the city, beyond the eastern detour road (Menachem Begin road) is pretty much deserted and you should have no problem sleeping there.
'''The faculty of agriculture''': an academic institute in the north exit of the city, near the train station. Inside you can find free toilets, 24h free computer room (in the main entrance to the right, you will need a password to log in but you can ask one of the students for his. The wifi is open for everybody) and most important- a lot of students, and as a great part of the students in this institute were hardcore hitchhiker/ travellers in the past there's a good chance the just by addressing one of them and asking for a place to stay you will get a couch for the night!
You can also find there free showers and kitchen (in the dorms- ask anyone where they are and notice that there are girl and boys dorms).
Once in the dorms you can just use the facilities or ask for permission from one of the students but they would probably don't mind as long as you keep the place clean). The key is NOT to be shy.
'''Free food''': near the central bus stations you can find Rehovot's market. If you get there at the end of the day (around sunset on weekdays or late afternoon on Friday) there's a good chance of finding good fruits and vegetables on the ground or in big stockpiles. It is common to search those piles and no one would mind.
