:: People do not ask, but it might sometimes expected as some gesture of friendship. Most people did not even look how much you gave (everybody gives as much as he can afford or finds appreciated), but the good will counts. But this was only our impression, sometimes we did give something, sometimes we did not not (as I get a coffee etc. for the driver in Germany sometimes too). You can also state from the beginning that you are a ''real'' hitchhiker and do not want to pay. However, hitchhiking is still quite easy and waiting times short. --[[User:Alex|Alex]] 10:00, 16 April 2008 (CEST)
Spain is more or less okay, I hitched all the way through Barselona to Cadiz via Madrid and from Madrid to Paris. I spent hours to get ride but all drivers were exellent - hippies, artists and photorgaphers. About Afganistan it's better to ask [[User:Belzas|Belzas]]. He was there at least two times and he definitely got something to say. :) [[User:Siberian explorer|Siberian explorer]] 02:33, 5 December 2010 (CET): :Waiting for hours every time is what I would call "bad", especially when there's lots of traffic. Even worse when you're next to a university (e.g. [[Valencia]]), a kind of place where I would expect to wait 2 minutes in Germany. [[User:Guaka|guaka]] 00:06, 6 December 2010 (CET):: Seems like I'm more patient. If I stood less than 1 day and finally got a car it's okay for me. :) [[User:Siberian explorer|Siberian explorer]] 12:37, 6 December 2010 (CET)::::Wow... It really depends on the number of cars, but if it's busy I get impatient in less than 30 minutes :) If there's no traffic I don't mind so much. But I like to plan my hitches, and it usually works out well when I'm hitching on known territory (i.e. Western Europe). [[User:Guaka|guaka]] 15:02, 6 December 2010 (CET):::: Anybody is interested in references about Central Asia(Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan)? Should I write it here or directly in article? [[User:Siberian explorer|Siberian explorer]] 15:52, 6 December 2010 (CET):::::: You mean ratings? Just wait a little, we are just building a nice site-wide ranking system. That should make everything much easier. --[[User:MrTweek|MrTweek]] 16:04, 6 December 2010 (CET)
