If you need to go by local roads to the North-west (Sandra, Lovrin or Sampetru Mare, or further) you can use a petrol station which is on Calea Torontalu. Just with a good sign and good luck you will get a ride. Do not renounce to buses that may stop. They may not ask you for money.
=== North ===
For direction [[Arad]] and further to the [[Nădlac-Nagylak border crossing|Hungarian Border]], try to reach the Highway resting area close to Giarmata, about 15 km north of the city center. There are buses (M49) and trains (operated by Regiotrans, not the national Railway CFR. Check https://regiocalatori.ro/#/cautare/ or google maps for departure times) going in this direction. There is a way under the Highway a few meters east of the resting area, which will take you to the correct side.
=== East ([[Deva]], [[Alba Iulia]], [[Sibiu]], [[Cluj-Napoca]]) ===
You can take bus no 11 from the center to the last station. Right at the bus station, there's an excellent place to hitchhike.
Update: In June 2015Another option is the resting area close to Giarmata on th A1 described in the section [[Timisoara#North|North]] == Things to do and see =====Wellness===There is a 25m swimming pool, my girlfriend a sauna and I hitched therean outside jacuzzi operated by the Polytechnical Unversity of Timişoara (UPT), located [https://www.

Lots of trafficThis all obviously is much easier without a huge backpack. We found ===Eating like a lift king===If you are into table diving, the foodstall at Iulius Mall is your place to be. It's about 30 fastfood restaurants and the people just leave so much food on their plate, it's unbelievable. ===A note on fare dodging===It is possible to Sibiu in 25enter all public transport without a valid ticket and only very rarely you'll encounter people controlling tickets. They'll mostly be wearing blue vests saying "Control" on them, so also fairly easy to spot. == Trashwiki & Nomadwiki == [[nomad:Timișoara]] [[trash:Timișoara]]
