Hey there, I'm Jens. Coming from a pretty small village between Dresden and Leipzig right next to the river Elbe, I started hitchhiking a couple of years ago after I began to study in the pretty neat town of Dresden, yeah. So I just stayed besides the river to take a bath everyonce in a while, last time was on January the 15th :-D Whatever, hitchhiking rocks the world, hope to see some places a little further away soon!!
