Hitching out
North towards São Paulo
Take a bus from the center in the direction Centro Politécnico. From there, go to the university campus (last station). The campus is next to the highway BR-116. Quite a lot of drivers are heading to São Paulo.
Alternatively, take a bus at 6am from Terminal Guadeloupe to Jardim Paulista and from there to Capivari Lake (at a stop outside JP Terminal, ask around). You will come along several big service stations full of trucks, the last one right by the lake. Apparently there are only two connections daily. (2017)
South towards Florianópolis
Take a bus from the center to the bus station Pinheirinho. The bus station is pretty close to the highway BR-116. Another option is to take the bus that goes to the airport (Aeroporto) in a tube station Rodoferroviária. From the airport head to BR-376 which goes to Florianópolis.
West towards Foz do Iguaçu
Take a bus towards the bus station "Campina do Siqueira". From there you walk towards "Parque Barigui", it's a 15 minutes walk in a straight line, and that road leads to the countryside of Parana, including Foz do Iguaçu (Iguazu Falls), Maringa, Londrina, Guarapuava, Cascavel, Castro (Canyon Guartela, 4th bigger canion in the world) and also towards Mato Grosso do Sul (Pantanal)
Places to avoid
Avoid walking at night in places far away from the center. Don't talk with suspicious people and don't let them know you are a foreigner.
Public transportation
Bus tickets cost R$ 3,70 in Curitiba. You can plan your trip inside the city using the website onibuscuritiba.org.
