=== South towards [[Louvain-la-Neuve]], [[Charleroi]], [[Namur]], [[Luxembourg]] (E411) ===
One of the best things to do is to go to the Station "Beaulieu" in Ixelles (''Metro 1A direction Herrmann-Debroux''). You will notice many cars stopping at traffic lights outside just before the station. This is just before road connects with the motorway towards the South. I got a lift in less than 2 minutes. Reach the Station "Delta" in Ixelles, or bus 71 to Delta''. The street surrounding the University Campus is called ''Triomflaan'' (Boulevard du Triomphe) and ''Pleinlaan'' (Boulevard de la Plaine). There is also a large Texaco petrol big service station nearby, Delta is a spot where a lot of people hitchhike, especially to [[Louvain-la-Neuve]]. At 10 minutes down the station 'Delta', you will notice a sign marked 'Taxistop' on the Jules Cockxstraat which is used as a carsharing kiss'n ride spot. Just hitch from thereroad if needed for further lifts.
Note that the E411 starting from there head direction South to [[Namur]], [[Luxembourg]], [[Lorraine]] in [[France]] and [[Rheinland-Pfalz]] in [[Germany]]. Many junctions, such as the southern ring near Jezus-Eik, gives the chance to reach the E19 (towards [[Charleroi]], [[Mons (Bergen)|Mons]] and [[Paris]]) or the E42 just north of [[Namur]]. Using a sign would ease the journey but remember that none of these junctions are hitchhiking friendly.
