Those ladies advised to talk the truckers, but I am not getting any ride
Most of them are saying that their company prohibits them to give rides to strangers
One of them said to approach someone owning a truck
I think I should go back now
I should also talk to the car drivers
Till now you must have understood that asking for rides on the highway is illegal
but you can stand in the rest areas, shoulders or areas like this
That was State Police car
I couldn't understand how to react
but I tried to hide this placard
and I deliberately started smiling more and more towards the car ahead of the police car
the police gave me a look and then went off
This proves that asking for rides at such places is not illegal
lets start again. Another car is coming
6:45 pm
I am very tired
but now I am in a car
he helped me
though he is going to drop me near Richmond
I got this ride 10-15 minutes back
I am feeling good
I have been talking to the gentleman
He says, its better to be inside the rest area to ask the people rather standing outside on the approach road
I will try to approach everyone
First of all, I have to eat something. I am almost drained
I have finally reached
Next RA is 107 miles away
I am very much thankful to this gentleman
This makes me hopeful for hitchhiking in USA
He was the first native American who offered me a ride
now I think, I can make this hitchhike trip happen
i just used the restroom
Now I am going to refill my bottle
also going to ask everyone for a ride
Two people have already refused
But atleast I got to talk to them
Rusheb told me to say Hi to everyone
Now I am charging my camera and gadgets
The TV is so loud
its 9 pm
I was waiting for this moment for a long time
Finally he said yes
Now Jerry is taking me to Atlanta
USA is tricky
but now I am feeling good
Now I am going in this huge truck
its 9 pm
For safety reasons it is not advisable to hitchhike at such time
He is asking me not to show the interior as he wants to clean before that
This is a Volvo truck
Now I am going to visit Rahul in Atlanta, Georgia
I don't know Rahul when I am going to reach your place!
Before this I have done hitchhiking during the night in Thailand. This is my second experience
Though it should be avoided
but I had this in my mind that... after a certain time in the evening, I will stop asking the car drivers
they usually feel unsafe
in such situation the truckers may help
So I kept asking everyone who was coming out of the washroom
I also met some Afghans. They were happy to meet
We spoke in Hindi
Though they had to refuse as their car was already full
While talking to random people, I had to tell a lot about me
I even had to tell them that I am well educated and hold a PhD, so that I could convince them
He is still busy in making arrangement for me
I am having a very good time. My first experience in an Amercian truck
