Hitchhiking is very common in '''Israel'''. Hitchhiking is often done by '''pointing to the ground with the hand far from the body''', instead of raising a thumb. <!-- maybe someone has a nice picture of this? -->instead of raising a thumb. But possibly raising a thumb will be understood as well.
The most usual way to start an hitchhiking journey is to take a bus out of town, to a junction in your direction. Almost every junction has a hitchhiking spot (the famous ''Trempiyada''), or at least a bus station where drivers can stop. It is very hard to hitchhike from the cities themselves, and inter-urban buses are relatively cheap and can get you to the nearest junction.
