Who am I
Belgian student in med school. Only hitched for a couple of times near my hometown Ghent, but i made my first real hitch hiking trip accros France last summer. My nickname was derived from my love of Sylvester Stallone as Rambo and Rocky, and the running joke me and my hitch buddy User:Nathan had on the stairs of La Defence, a famous bussiness centre in France with an excellent view.

Stats
Most fun lift: after being stuck for 3 hours, a lift from Rennes to Paris. Spent 6 hours in a classic volkswagen van from '76 with a cool hippie girl driving through small villages and countryside
Best scenery: the area around Cancale and St-Malo in France. Thanks to a very friendly doctor who drove us for more than one hour accros a coastline with beaches, clifs and oyster farms.
Shortest time waiting: 30 seconds near the town of Beauvais, France
Longest time waiting: 3 hours at Rennes, France
