An amazing valley between skull rocks on a beautiful beach in Sardegna. There is a permanent, but changing hippie community living in the valley in caves and tents. Maybe we could join for some days. There is enough space. I will upload a photo soon.

Location suggestions for 4-8-12

Somewhere near Berlin, Germany

  • After four years of challenging destinations, it'd be nice to try a central, easy and popular place in Europe.

Organizers

Team of people ready to take responsibility on the ground:

  • Name | contact details | special contribution/interests

Willing online helpers:

  • Tomi Astikainen | tomi(at)mindyourelephant.org | writing --Astikain 13:39, 21 September 2011 (CEST)
  • Name | contact details | special contribution/interests
  • Zenit | find out via my talk :-) | writing, thinking as much as I will be able to from the road --Zenit 00:25, 22 September 2011 (CEST)

Pros

  • A lot of hitchhikers nearby e.g. in France, Netherlands, Poland and - naturally - in Germany could form the basis for a VERY big main event.
    • A central location like this would allow the national hitchhiking clubs to cooperate in creating the event.
    • Would be easy to get together a team on the ground (5-8 people in Berlin), who would take care of the preparations throughout the whole year, not just a couple of weeks before the event.
  • Affordable.
  • Possible partner organization: Kulturkosmos, organizer of the Fusion Festival
    • (Thilo will approach them once we have a solid proposal)

Cons

  • By the time it's August, some HC hitchhikers could potentially be faaar away from Germany already.

Scandinavia

  • We've had West (Portugal), Central (Paris) and East (Odessa & Kara Dere) - it might be time to move it North! :-)

Pros

  • Plentiful space, awesome camping possibilites
  • A place that would thrive with hitch-hikers once we promote it a little bit (believes Zenit).
  • Accessible - the ferries from Germany to Denmark and from Denmark to Sweden are absolutely hitcheable
  • Moose!!

Cons

  • Not cheap (but good to Dumpster Dive, better than Bulgaria) - expensive alcohol
  • Mosquitoes in the summer time & sometimes changeable weather (but all in all usually nice and predictable along the East coast in the summer).


Valle di Luna, Capo Testa - Santa Teresa Gallura, Sardegna, Italy

An amazing valley between skull rocks on a beautiful beach in Sardegna. There is a permanent, but changing hippie community living in the valley in caves and tents. Maybe we could join for some days. There is enough space. I will upload a photo soon. Wikipedia Link (german only) Another one

  • Central Europe
  • Sardegna is hitchhiking friendly
