Dubrovnik

Hitchhiking north out of Dubrovnik - does require some patience, all the rest areas seem to be located on the coast, making it difficult to find a good area. The spot I found worked, although I waited an hour. Go the the main bus station, in the north. Cross the road and keep walking north and look for steps leading up the hill side. If find yourself under the bridge, you have gone too far. If you follow the path, it will lead you all the way up to the E65. Then, cross the bridge and continue across to the other side, where you will find a rather small pull in spot. This is the only spot I could find for hitchhiking north out of Dubrovnik. Make sure you stay behind the barrier and make yourself as visible as possible, because the pull in spot is not long and the drivers can't see it from far away. Halfway up the path to the E65 that you would have taken, is an awesome stealth camping spot. Ok, so when you get about halfway up the path (probably a good idea to check it out during the day, was a little scary when I found it at 1.30am, drunk) if you look to your left, you should be able to see a metal railing, at the bottom of a fairly steep slope like 3 metres long or something. Be careful. Then turn to your right, with the railing on your left and walk along. There are some pretty annoying bushes that will probably scratch you, but hey, it seems to keep other people out. And then you should be finding yourself with about 1 to 2 metres between the railing and the cliff behind, just enough space to lie down, in a secluded spot with a great view. Enjoy ;-) However, be very careful and use a torch, as there are sudden drops in many places and walking here without light is dangerous.
Option 2: Nothing complicated. There are bus stops on the Jadranska Cesta. I stood at the one opposite to the Lodpudska Ulica with a HUGE sign "Ploče". Literally 1 minute later, the first car passed by pulled over and took me to Ploče. You should take bus no. 3 from the city center but actually after my last experiences I can say that this place is not so good as the bridge described in the first point is way better than this placeabove.
