Now we can finally say that we hitchhiked from Latvia to Athens! Our main goal is done! =D Now as a special gift for ourselves...we will travel in Germany, Netherlands & Belgium before saying goodbye. For that to happen we took in the morning a flight to Germany (that costed around 40€). In the airport things went better than we expected. Neither of us had a special plastic bag for liquids, but they let us through the security check without problems, Hugo only lost his pocket knife (dangerous and skillful terrorist). We both had to put our big backpacks to Ryanair special bag-box, but after a while of pushing and pulling, we managed to do it! We even passed with bottles of 500mL eye-lents liquid & Hugo's air wax without any problem. It was the smallest airport that we have ever seen...only one flight arriving and one flight leaving (the same plane xD) during all day.
Hitchhiking from Frankfurt-Hahn airport was quite hard, first we walked for a while away from airport, tried to hitchhike on the road and then decided to ask people next to a local Lidl. After struggling for a while, Hugo finally managed to find a man who took us to the main road and after that it was much more easy. Totally 3 cars and 6 hours to arrive to Cologne (or Keulen, Köln, Colônia...depending on the language xp).
The city seems to have really good energy and everybody speaks amazing English and is ready to help you. It's good to be back in central Europe! Today we only walked a bit in the city center and hanged out with our cool host Janna.
