'''Odense''' is a city on the island of [[Fyn]] in [[Denmark]]. It's the third largest city in Denmark, known primarily for being the birth town of Hans Christian Andersen.
==Hitching Out===== Going to [[Copenhagen]] =Hitchhiking in ==
From the centre, one can go with buses 21, 22, 121 or 122 in the direction of Højby. There's a stop before a McDonald's in the south of the city. A hundred meters or so past the McDonald's and to the left there is the entry ramp for the motorway to Copenhagen.
Maybe most effective would be ===From West (Germany, Jutland)===You can get of at almost all of the exits around Odense and catch a bus to stand right after the roundabout before center, but at exit 52 Odense SV it is very easy for the McDonaldsdriver to hold in at a supermarket Lidl. There's a good place for To get here you drive left towards the cars to stop city center and since it's close to right in the roundabout traffic light. Here the cars car can turn and drive pretty slow. Also people going back to the McDonalds will enter and exit highway. From here you can also catch a to the McDonalds using city center. The bus stop is right after the roundabouttraffic light. It is also possible to walk, it will take you around an hour (6 km).
=== Going to [[Jutland]] or From east (Copenhagen )===You can get of at Motorvejskryds Odense SØ "exit" 49. If you drive off the highway and follow it until the big roundabout you'll find a rest stop called Rasteplads Odense SØ. From there you driver can get back on the highway and you can walk towards the city and catch a bus to the center.
From == Hitchhiking out == ===East towards Sjaellend, Copenhagen, Sweden=== Most of the traffic leaving Odense in this direction is funnelled onto the E20 via the city centre go with bus number 29 junction near Svendborgvej. However very recently this junction has been redesigned, and it's now much harder to hitch that it used to be. Your best bet is to Hjallesestand halfway down Drejebaeken, where the road curves you'll see a space on the island in the middle of the road where cars can pull in. There are lots of traffic here, however it IS illegal for pedestrians to be on this street, and it is illegal for the end cars to stop here. But I could not find a more suitable hitching spot.   If you don't want to stand there, there's a gas stationnear the McDonalds. It will be very Or try signing at the Flixbus bus stop near the McDonalds - but it's close to the largest roundabout in Denmarkand the cars see you pretty late. Signing before the roundabout means you miss the traffic leaving the gas station and the McDonalds.  Alternatively, with possibilities there is another big junction 2km west at Dalumvej. However here the traffic are coming from four different roads so you won't have the same concentration on traffic.  If you're really having a bad time east out of Odense, it could be worth your time hitching west to the Kildebjerg gas station and looking for a ride east from there. Like I said, it's not easy. Also important to remember - when travelling east, you'll be going both over the Great Belt Bridge which has a £35 euro toll. As with the ferries, this charge is per car. ===West towards Jylland (Jutland) and Germany=== It is normally very easy to hitchhike out of Odense towards Jutland and CopenhagenGermany. There is a shoulder on bus stop just before the entrance 52 Odense SV to the highway where you can stand and catch all the traffic from Odense to the highway. To get here you can take bus 151-153: Assens/Brændekilde to the bus stop Vestre Boulevard, which is the spot. Or you can take bus 51-59: Bellinge/brændekilde and get of at Heliosvænget. From here you walk back in the direction from where the bus came, turn left at the first road you see, follow the pavement/bikeline under the big road, turn left up the stairs and you are there. When you take the bus you can see the signs for the highway and the entry rampspot, but the bus turn left in both directionsthe traffic light just before, so it dos not stop there will .  It is important to be plenty aware that the highway splits just after the bridge to Jutland, so if you are going south towards Germany, but your driver is going north towards ex. Aarhus, you have to get out at a gasstation before the bridge or at the exit/entrance of space Fredericia (would not recommend this place) To awoid getting stuck you can either wait for a ride going south or get of at Lillebælt Nord (pic) right after exit 57 Nørre Aaby.. It can take some time to stop and you'll also stand get a ride south from there, but it works.. From there it goes quite safelyeasy; there are a lot of gasstations after Kolding== Trashwiki & Nomadwiki == [[nomad:Orense]] [[trash:Odense]]
Go with bus 51 or 153 from Odense Banegård Center (The central train station) to the stop Vestre Boulevard. Walk further in the direction of the bus until you come to the motorway. From here big trucks from the industrial area nearby and people who work in Odense and lives in Jutland, should be able to take you west.
==Internet access==
At the train station there is a library where they have computers with free internet access. There's a sign saying "use for max 15 minutes" or something like that. But the nobody really cares for how long you sit there.
