From Odense going towards either west or east, local hitchhikers mostly use the on-ramps of a same road junction that brings the traffic from/to the highway E20. To get to that road junction, check Google Maps for directions or options of public transportations to "McDonald's 5260". You can generally take buses from Odense central station with destination "Hjallese" or "Højby" (buses 21, 22 or 23) and ask to get off at the McDonald's by the highway (there will be only one on your way).

Towards Jutland Once you're at the junction, find the on-ramp on your right side which gives access to the highway (E20) towards "Kolding". Kolding is a city already in Jutland.

Towards Copenhagen Once you're at the junction, cross the bridge over the highway (E20) and then you'll see the on the on-ramp towards Copenhagen on your left side (in the signs you'll read Copenhagen in Danish, which is "København").

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.
