__NOTOC__
The [[Hitchwiki]] is a collaborative website for gathering information about [[hitchhiking]] and [[train hopping in the United States|other]] [[boats|ways]] of extremely cheap ways of transport. It was inspired by [http://en.wikipedia.org Wikipedia] and by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hitchhiker's_Guide_to_the_Galaxy Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]. At some point it was left abandoned by its founder, and adopted by [[User:Guaka|Guaka]]. As a hitchhiker you're encouraged to not only read the guide, but also to contribute by adding your knowledge, improving existing articles and starting new ones!
The Hitchwiki is collecting all sort of relevant information about good hitchhiking spots, knowledge about hitchhiking possibilites in different countries, general know-how about [[what to pack]] and [[when to go]], [[what to eat]], and [[how to stay safe]].
=== How to contribute ===
Just click <tt>edit</tt> at the top of an article, make your changes and click <tt>Save page</tt>. A good article to start editing or writing is probably your home town. To create new articles you can add <ttcode>[[</ttcode> and <ttcode>]]</ttcode> around the title of the new article, in some other article, on your user page or even here on the main page. Save the page, click on the red link and start writing a new page. Be '''bold''' about editing, just do it!
If it feels a bit awkard, you can practice in the [[Sandbox]].
