“Hitchhiked here twice. The first time we started late and had to sleep in the medow a bit north from there. The second time was yesterday. It's not the best spot, but good enough to get picked up I guess.”

“I agree: perfect spot for Vienna! Got a ride within 5 minutes. The gas station staff only asked me to not stop the cars from the road because it would be too dangerous. So I asked people using the gas station.”
