Oman is a country in the Middle East, bordering the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Yemen.
Hitchhiking in Oman (especially in the higher populated north) is quite easy. A lot of people are curious about people standing in the middle of nowhere and give you a lift because they want to know what you are doing here. Food is often "included", even if you insist you are not hungry, you will find yourself with a big kebab in your hands a few minutes later.
