{{Hitchhiking Zine nomination}}
'''Maribor''', is the second most important centre and the second largest city of Slovenia. It has a population of about 114,000 inhabitants, and is quite close to the Slovene border with [[Austria]]. I have been told repeteadly by my drivers that they also hitchhiked the country when they were younger, and that’s why they would pick me. The highway connects the main cities and Austria in less than 2 hours.

Get off in the station "Smelt", 15 minutes later, when you see the "World Trade Center" building. Ahead of you, you will see the Autostrada. On the first turn to the right, go into the motorway entry and stand on the side with your sign.
