the place where I stood almost a day without seeing a car
hitching out of Ankara in August 2009

I am a hitchhiker, teacher, noisy beer drinker and sometimes annoying blabbermouth and can mither you in German, English, and more or less in French and Russian.

Hitchhiking

After several year of Groundhopping and train travelling, I found out at the age of 20 that hitchhiking is just the best way to get arround and gives the best balance between adventure, cheap travelling and reliability. Till today, I hitchhiked more than 100.000 kilometers. Today I work as a teacher, and don´t have regulary time for hitchhiking anymore....

Countries

Apart from other countries, where I used other forms of transport, I hitchhiked in: Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Faroe Islands, Denmark, Poland, Hungary, Ukraine, Russia, Georgia, Bulgaria, Romania, Moldova, Transnistria, Kosovo, Montenegro, Macedonia, Albania, Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, India, Turkey, Oman, UAE, Cyprus, Greece, Italy, Abchasia

Planed trips

Hitching throug the whole American continent one day.......don´t know if that will come true......
