Luckily I did not have a big backpack with me, so my lie turned out to be working. In [[La Pintana]] (the poorest and most dangerous neighborhoodneighbourhood) in [[Santiago de Chile]] they finally kicked me out of the car. * Hitchhiking from [[Holyhead]] to [[London]] was fun, since the driver was a famous Irish soccer player (although I did not know him) and I got a lift in a nice Mercedes.
