While making my first steps in the wiki I also realised that the sharing of information not only about good spots but also about strategies, safety and the things happening around hitchhiking is also something that has not been done in an organised way yet (as far as I know). It rather happened from person to person which is also a good way but in this way your information is limited to the people you meet. So, setting up this wiki is also about giving access to valuable tips&tricks for everyone (who has a computer and can read these pages... :o).

I was thinking and talking about hitchhiking before I did it for real the first time. Everybody in my environment told me not to do it, "its dangerous", "we will get stuck somewhere", you know all these helpful guides which never hitched on their own. Then I searched the internet for information about hitchhiking, first saw the site of Veit Kühne then the one from [[Ludovic Hubler]], then the site of [[abgefahren e.V.]] They, especially the storys from Ludovic made me go out! Today after I have hitched some kilometers I want to share my knowledge too and maybe make some new people to go out and give it a try. Also I want to give people new to hitchhiking the chance to explore this new way of travelling in a safe environment. That's why i add info and that's why I work for abgefahren e.V.

I am digging the shit out working here. I'm from the U.S. and that's where I have traveled. Whole states don't have pages! I get to write whatever I believe is true for so much of the US- if you're a hitchhiker from the US you should totally sign up and start working here, so much fun to write 3 sentence snap judgments of a place and have that be the page- I find snap judgments of a place are often revealed to be incredibly true.
This website is what I wished Wikipedia was when I was on Wikipedia: Free! A frontier! Not 10,000 bullshit admins saying if you don't want to learn the exact way to puntuate and cite everything we don't want your contributions!
