"My Hitch in France went marvellously! Check this''Don't be afraid to approach people at service stations just because your French is weak (or, I was walking along the street in Nimeslike me, minding my own business, and non-existent). After a woman pulled up in a car and asked me if I wanted to hitch to Marseille! She asked me!! When we got there, she showed me around and I slept on her sofa (whenever I tell French men about this they invariably respond quick 'Did you ''forkbonjour', or ' hervous allez ou?'), people were happy to help. The next day Many people didn't speak English, with some I got 5 hitches from Marseille to Limansby in Spanish, and for with 3 of them or 4 we had no language in common at all I had to do was hold up a cardboard sign and the first car that came picked me up. I was going to write that it's like taking the bus Nevertheless, ''but you have to wait for busses!'' As a bonus, the people who I hitched with were really nice, so much so that one of them lied still kind and said that my French wasnwilling to help.''t so bad! Oh yeah, and the bit about French bakeries is incomplete. They have pastries round the back too!!"- [[User:Justunein|Justunein]]

Even that they do not speak a lot of English, they will try to help you. One driver also take me in one restaurant near high way even that I did not want that he spend money to by me something to eat. It was nice to cross from Spain to Germany in two days with hitchhiking.''  ''I started my first hitchhike tour in France and found out that most French people are very kind and in most cases they are happy to take you with them. But I think it's really helpful to speak even a little bit French so you can say want you want and where you want to go because most of French people don't like to speak english or maybee they are not able to.Espacally in the south of france it's also possible to travel short distances by train for free, because most of them are not controlled. In case of controlling you can say that you're out of money and in most cases they will not send you a bill because it is to complicated for them to find you in your home country. And even if you are in bad luck and they will find you the price is not even higher than the ticket for the train.'' == Links ==
