The people we tried to convince to let us on for free said do not hitchhike very unsafe (it felt unsafe too) and you are not getting on for free. Total bummer. But! A family friend (we did not ask) has donated to me and it covers an overnight bus. That's our new plan! We miss getting cars but not that much. Copenhagen we are almost there 🐞
