Rome is the capital of Italy.

Hitching Out

North towards Firenze, Milano

Take bus 92, 135 from Termini, get out at Salaria, which is right at the entrance of some kind of highway, but people could also be heading to Rieti (check this name), which might turn out not too bad either. Guaka and amylin waited 20 minutes for a ride (which is a lot less than the average waiting time in Italy). Reminder this is not a good neighborhood with plenty of prostitutes. Hitching after 10 is not reccommended, nor is girls hitching alone here.

Public transport

There are hardly any checks on tickets in buses. You can even take a bus from Sabaudia (90 kilometers away) without paying a ticket.

November 2: There has been a recent increase in number of officials checking for tickets on buses and trams in Roma. This is said to be a direct result of new systems in the metro requiring less man-power there. Just keep your eyes open, officials are easy to spot and thusly avoid.
