How far would you go to win a stage?

As we are in our thirties now, we take it slow and let the youth win.

What shouldn't be missing in your hitchhiking-backpack?

Hummus and a rain jacket.

Your Grandma's opinion:

Hitchhiking? At least not during Ramadan! | Next time I’ll give you money for a train ticket.

You are ...

... hobby-hitchhikers

How do you imagine your final arrival to Majaka (Lemme)?

With music, new stories to share around the campfire and a heart full of gratitude.

We met in 2016 when one of us gave the other an introduction to hitchhiking on a trip to Scotland. Our second meet up was in 2018. It’s 2024 now and it’s time to catch up about trees and plants and hit the road again.

Our driver Lisa told us this joke her father told her long ago: Der Lehrer fragt am ersten Tag in der neuen Klasse die Schülke, wie sie heißen: Der Erste antwortet: “Ich heiße Hannes.” Der Lehrer sagt: "Nein, du heißt Johannes.” Dann fragt er den Zweiten. Der antwortet: "Ich heiße Achim.” Der Lehrer sagt: "Nein, du heißt eigentlich Joachim.” Bevor der Lehrer den nächsten Schüler fragen kann sagt der: "Ich heiße Jokurt.”

That’s Rambo who at first was over-excited to meet us and soon couldn’t care less.
