About me

I'm a 30-something Dutch hitchhiker. I live in Doetinchem, Netherlands but I usually start hitchhiking on the A3 near Emmerich. I mainly hitchhike for vacations, but want to get into the habit of hitching for daytrips as well. Also I spent way to much time logging all my rides in a excel-file that is getting rather slow.

Modus operandi: I'm a gas station exit dweller, as I believe that people that want to help will stop anyways. I prefer hitching without signs, but always carry a home made whiteboard.


Feel free to write something on my talk page, or find me on Insta. Chris_reist_rond. (On my story it's mainly pics of my backpack against guardrails).

Also I sometimes post travel story's in Dutch on my facebook page "Chris reist rond". (Chris travels around).
