“Nobody stopped for us here. Walk a bit further to the petrol station, but even there you will probably have to wait a long time as everybody was from the city and just there to get gas. After 1 hour our first group of two got a ride to the next gas station and the second group of two got a ride after 1,5 hours, also to the next gas station”
