RE: Travel Story: Hitchhiking Tierra del Fuego & Learning History (Genocide of the Selk'nam)
I live in the USA, in Florida. According to my husband (who actually is from Brazil, but lived in Oregon for a while too) Oregon is friendly toward hitchhikers. There is a pretty big difference in culture from one side of this country to the other though.
So cool, where is he from?
Yeah guess near big cities it's always an issue, anywhere in this world actually. People are so stressed and worried about violence that they won't accept anyone in their car, so sad.
That's why I like to travel to wild places or to really isolated areas. Everything is simpler and people are more open to strangers. They may distrust you at first, but once you talk to them and show that you are cool, they open their house for you if needed.
He is from Fortaleza. I have no idea where that is :)
Yes, I agree, the country is much better than the city life.
Niiiiice, Fortaleza is all the way up in North East. You should go there with him, beaaaaatiful beaches.
We've been talking about it. One of these days. He'd love to go back.
