First of all hitchhiking is safe in most situations and one of the most beautiful ways of travelling. If you have not hitchhiked yet and you plan to do it in the future you should get more informations about hitchhiking from the internet. There are a lot of good tipps collections about hitchhiking. Here are only some good tipps. When you want to reach a far place, first write down only the first letters of the next big city. You should try to jump in steps to your place you want to go. At far distance hitchhiking, it is seldom that you will get a top lift directly to the place you want to go. You should look into the eyes from the drivers which are passing you. Mostly you can even tell it by a look that the dirver will stop his car for you. When there are highways with petrol stations you should try to get to these wonderful spots as fast as possible. From there you can easily ask the drivers like that: "Excuse me, are you driving in direction to Berlin and have some free place for taking me with you?"
If you are unsure about hitchhiking alone you should hitchhike with friends. Hitchhiking with a friend is really beautiful because it is not getting boring while standing long time and you can change while somebody talks with the driver and the other can find rest and maybe sleep in the back of the car. If you find nobody for hitchhiking with you, try to get in contact with somebody on the internet. For example you can find a black board on abgefahren.hitchbase.com or the international [[mailing lists ]] where you can connect to other hitch hikers.
