== Contact Me ==
If you are a sober traveler in need of a hot shower or a place to hang out, contact me if passing through the Ozark Mountains of [[Missouri]] so we can connect. I want to hear your stories, and I may have a spare couch and bedroom for you. If you have any questions about hitchhiking, motorized and non motorized bicycle touring, or other forms of alternative travel, or just want to chat, I want to help in any way I can.

*2013: 23,400 miles

Provinces/Territories of [[Canada]] hitched in: 8

Easiest places to hitchhike in my opinion: [[Hawaii]], [[West Virginia]], [[Massachusetts]] Most difficult places to hitchhike: [[Kansas]], [[Ohio]], [[NewfoundlandFlorida]]
Fun fact: One out of every 450 Americans has driven by me while I hitchhiked. Calculated by estimation of (total miles hitchhiked in United States) divided by (average distance of a ride) = (total # of rides), then (total # of rides) multiplied by (average vehicles passing per hour) multiplied by (average wait time in hours before getting a ride) = total number of people who drove by me, then (population of United States) divided by (total # of people who drove by me).
