===Direction Szczecin, Świnoujście (Scandanavian ferries) & [[Berlin]]===
*From Gdansk, [[Sopot]], or [[Gdynia]] head to the closest railway station and catch the regional 'SKM' train in the direction of Wejherowo (all SKM lines going North run at least to this stop), the ticket should cost around 3-4PLN or less with student card and the ride should take about 30 minutes. Once you arrive, walk down the log hall way of the station exit up the stairs and you should be standing next to the beginning of the motorway going in the direction of Berlin (if you are in the small town, turn around and go back to the other side of the station. Once there, walk 30 meters back to the bus stop where there is a place for cars to stop and begin your journey.
*-a tip* - A sign in Polish or with a Polish city e.g. 'Szczecin' (only 80km from Berlin) is much safer than a German city, because even if Poles are going to Germany they may think you are German and may be shy to speak German (a 'Berlin' sign took me much longer compared to a 'Szczecin' sign for different trips).
A common HH trip through Poland involves a last minute stop in the North before heading towards Berlin. This is no problem, as long as you know where to start your trip. Do not attempt it in the center of any of the tricity area- Gdansk, Sopot, or Gdynia. Also, this route has been successful with various guests of mine from Hospitality Club and Couch Surfing. Maximum wait: 25 minutes. Minimum: 2 minutes.
