=== East toward [[Kalgoorlie]], [[Adelaide]], [[Sydney]] ===

Also a big hitch, be sure to take plenty of water and supplies if you will be [[camping]]. In [[winter]] it does get cold at [[hitchhiking at night|night]] in the desert. (Even though you've never seen it be cold in Australia on the TV, it does happen. Don't tell anyone.) If you're heading for the east coast the quickest and comfiest option is with a truck if you can get one who isn't prohibited from giving lifts, one who maybe owns his own truck. You can have good luck with this just by thumbing on the roadside, as well as talking to the driver at a servo (service station) or truck/rest stop (these can be quiet though). Most trucks are carrying things to be delivered by Monday morning at their destination, so the busiest times for them leaving [[Perth]] are Wednesday, Thursday and Friday whereas you will see much fewer on a Saturday or Sunday. Trucks will not go through [[Kalgoorlie]], they cut across from Coolgardie to Norseman.
