== Hitching out ==
FirstAdd info pls === East towards [[Sevan]], [[Diljian]] === From the city center, or ''Yeritasardakan'' metro station, walk along Abovyan Street in direction north. When you reach a roundabout, take the metro second exit to the motorway. You will see a huge bridge - go under it. Approximately 100 m behind it there is a nice hitchhiking spot, next to a bus stop that almost nobody uses. There is no pedestrian crossing in the vincinity, and the road is huge, so better to choose the right side of the road already at the roundabout. Another option is the 2nd last station bus 259 (long blue bus that looks quite modern compared to other buses) leaving from Kilikia Central Bus Station to Abovyan. It takes about 20-25 minutes to get out the station in city. Tell the south where the last 2 stations are driver you need to get off as Northern Bus Station (Hyuseesayeen Avtokayan in split directionsArmenian). Walk 10-15 meters along the road until you find a suitable spot, and start hitchhiking. There is also a free bus from hereKilikia Central Bus Station to Abovyan that follows the same route as the bus #259. But not knowing Armenian, ask around for where it will be hard to find the bus, because it has an Armenian language sign saying it's a charity bus The sign in Armenian is: "ԲԱՐԵԳՈՐԾԱԿԱՆ ԵՐԹՈՒՂԻ ԵՐԵՎԱՆ ԱԲՈՎՅԱՆ". If you manage to catch find it, take this bus 104 (usually old soviet buses colored orange - [http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9F%D0%90%D0%97- make sure it 3201|image on wikipedia]), get off at Northern bus station and hitchhike from there. Note that this is in direction Araratcharity bus so you don't have to pay anything. === West or North ([[Gyumri]], [[Vanadzor]], [[Georgia]]) === Take metro to the last stop Barekamutyun. The exit is bit complicated but when you are at the street you can orientate better. You must go to Kievyan street.(it until it gets onto 's the main road, street which then splits pretty soonis heading bit downhill) In the beginning you will see a bus stop where #18 and #57 is passing by. With Mashrutka #57 you realize that you are nearly out of town when the block house naighberhood is ending and you are driving north at M1 Gevorg Chaush Street. You are passing some gas stations and the street is uphill. Go out there. Straight forward you see the highway bridge where you can walk to the highway and stop a car quite quick. Another option is from Kilikia Bus Station take a bus going to the city of Ashtarak. Tell the driver you need to get off at Bagavan. The bus continues straight, will stop on the main road next to Ararat gas and petrol stations right before it enters the city of Ashtarak. You'll find yourself on the main road that goes to the cities of Gyumri or Vanadzor. The road splits about 2-3 kilometers after - going to the left towards Gyumri and to the right towards Vanadzor and Armenia- Georgia border. The bus costs 250 AMD. This location is very good for hitchhiking and in most of the cases you want can hitch a direct ride to get off hereGyumri or to Aparan (direction towards Vanadzor). == Wild camping == Pitching a tent can be done easily in the English Park (Angliakan aygee). It's very calm and safe. Then, start hitching! Sleeping with tent is also possible in Первая Перевалочная == Nomadwiki & Trashwiki == {{nomadwiki}}

'''Yerevan''' is the capital of [[Armenia]]. == Hitchhiking out ==
Hitchhiking out of town is pretty easy. Be careful of people who are actually taxis and want you to pay. But people stop relatively easily.
