Taking a break

As I’m writing this, I’m almost home. I’ve been back in my hometown for 2 days now but at my moms house. Last Friday I knew there was a possibility to get a ride back home from Germany. I was in the rock bar in Günzburg and had to get to a truck stop 15Continue reading “Taking a break”

Austria and Germany

I woke up with a amazing view from a house halfway up a mountain at the edge of Bolzano. And yup, I was completely naked. I figured it would be super awkward but it was nothing like that. It wasn’t so bad, but I don’t think I was completely comfortable. So I got out ofContinue reading “Austria and Germany”

Pushing boundaries

After almost 2 hours of thumbing, I had to give up. Italy and hitchhiking aren’t the perfect Romeo and Juliet, and I’m no Cupid. So, I ditched the ‘hitch’ and went for a nice little hike. A lot of peaceful moments and about 10 km later, I arrived in a little town called Domegliara. BasicallyContinue reading “Pushing boundaries”

Riunito con Giusy

Yes! I eventually made it to Parma. The driver, who never really introduced himself, I think it was Flavio, dropped me off at Parma Stazione. There I had a quick walk around to find Giusy and her friends waiting for me in the car. We drove to Viadana and after dropping her friends off weContinue reading “Riunito con Giusy”

Day 3 & 4: Italy

I woke up at the B&B after a good night of sleep and had some lovely French breakfast and even got to take some extra food for on the go. I walked back to the gas station that didn’t bring me much in the dark. But now I got lucky after only 15 minutes. IContinue reading “Day 3 & 4: Italy”

Stay positive

I was so tired yesterday. So a bit late, but here’s my story. After a great stay with Thomas, I was back on the street. Thomas showed me a spot to start my day and gave me some bread. So I went on to the spot he told me about and after 10 minutes IContinue reading “Stay positive”

Sweet dreams

For anyone who now assumes I’m laying on a freezing cold bench, somewhere in a scary park. I’m not. As I was in the pub, I got to know some people. Some gave me a drink and then I met Thomas and his friends. Thomas was really interested in my story and when I toldContinue reading “Sweet dreams”
