I waited long, but think i was unlucky. Loads of traffic to belgium and france, very little to where i actually wanted to go: netherlands...

During summer holidays loads of families with full cars, lots of ppl going north. Best bet is not to ask at the more frequented lunchspot, but rather ask around the petrol station as theres much less falilies stopping there

Drivers were overall not polite, relatively low passenger car traffic and a lot of dirty looks or avoidance - I was clean and groomed, didn't have this problem elsewhere.

Saw a van with Spain number plates and kayaks on top, talked to the driver and he took me to just outside of Cologne.

Had a sign indicating E42 to Cologne, had my first offer in 5 minutes but she was going west. A friendly German couple offered a bit later, said they hitched a lot when they were young. I stood at the exit by the no parking except service vehicles sign to catch all cars (not trucks) as they exit. Beware what looks like a driveway is actually a local road and sees a lot of traffic.

Lots of traffic lights and cars headed to the expressway. Good visibility, parking places, bustops and a cycle lane provide good options for pulling over.

Target was Eindhoven. Lots of dutch plates left me feeling hopeful.

One guy pulled over and was going 1km. Rejected hahaha. Next a nice couple going to bonn. Rejected.

Then I got a direct ride to eindhoven!!!!

All the drivers spoke English and german.

Fucking great spot.

Had Eindhoven sign

Didn’t take long before I had a lift to Brussels with a car full of Germans on their way to a Jason Derulo concert

Not a bad spot for Eupen or Liege (Lutych). It was raining a bit, so I hid under a small roof at a nearby car shop and just peeked out when a car was approaching. There is an Aldi nearby, if you need to resupply or need a sign.

This place is counterintuitive, or I just got lucky, but I was exhausted and in a not-so-great mood, so I desperately wanted to get out of Germany. So I got a sign saying BE, and it took just a couple of minutes to get a ride to the small town of Kelmis in Belgium.

I made a mistake and trusted my driver that this would be a good place. It was not. I tried standard hitchhiking, but soon realized that there is too heavy traffic for that here. So I started asking at the gas station, and that worked after some time.

I stood at the roundabout on the end. There was a lot of traffic. Had a sign saying Köln. Then a guy took me past it to a station in the direction of Frankfurt. Good spot. You can get here by bus from Aachen very easily, the bus station is right next to the station.

Right now the roundabout is closed due to construction. If youre heading to Köln i reccomend taking the 52 bus from the city centre to the gas station on autobahn 4. Its like 10 minutes.
