A risky way to go on a journey, however, he has a lot of fans. The huge plus of the hitchhip is that even with limited finances you have the opportunity to visit almost any corner of the world where there is a road.
In addition, it is a great way to get acquainted with new people and get the impressions that you are unlikely to get on the train or, let's say on the plane. We will tell you about five mandatory rules that need to follow if you want a trip to be successful.
Take care of your appearance
A very important point, since it depends on it, whether the trip will take place at all or not. It would seem that the rule is elementary, but some stubbornly ignore it. Think about a person with whom you will drive, most likely, a pretty decent amount of time, and about your conservation too.
If you are a lonely girl, when collecting on the road, do not wear anything overwhelming and short, you do not need to provoke the driver once again (in case this is a man). The perfect option is clean, loose clothing that will not argue your movements and your driver as a whole.
Important moment - if you are going to catch a car at night, get acquainted with the acquisition of reflective elements that need to be attached to the clothes.

Travel in the pare
If you are planning a trip in someone else's country, it is better to grab a friend or a young man with me, since the hitchhike is always associated with risk, and the level of danger depends on the country.
Many ignore this advice, as they believe that couples are not the best travelers, however, according to statistics, drivers are experiencing more trust than a single voting tourist.
It happens that you have stopped the car, and in it is not too a pleasant company, in this case, ask where your new acquaintances go, but do not sit in the car and just answer that you are not on the way.

Treat route
Despite the fact that you are not driving you, you need to know exactly what way and what roads you can drive to the destination. Experienced motorways always plan their route.
Take a paper map of the road, as the navigator will not catch everywhere, but in some situations without a map you just can not do.
Examine settlements located along the path of your following, it must be done in case of an emergency.

Rent "on the shore"
Even before sitting in the car, speak the driver's condition with the driver. The driver must understand what you are going to go for free. And you are not going to pay any way. Make sure that you study at the institute, because there are difficulties with finances, and in the street so stakes that you can hardly come down. Typically drivers agree to pass on such conditions if you are not an obvious tourist and he is really on the way.
This is a rather important point that will avoid trouble at the end of the trip.
Do not be silent
Do not think that the main reason why the driver took you - sincere spiritual impulses. A person, especially in a long trip, needs at least to throw a few words with someone. It would be nice to put a sullen man next to me, with whom not one and not even a couple of hours to spend? Unlikely. Therefore, be open to the dialogue.
