From the main bus station in ''Crnomerec'', there are buses to the main road, out of the city. For example, bus #119 drives parallel to the road to Maribor (then you just cross the railways), bus #122 drives on the road to Maribor. Some hitchhiker got a really hard time getting a long ride from there, though. He prefers the old road (''stary put'') to the highway, where it's forbidden to hitch on the side of the road, and where there doesn't seem to be many petrol stations.

=== Internet access ===
Optima Telekom centar, Savska 5 has free Internet access for advertising purposes so you can just come in say hello to people who work three and go on the Internet. There are mostly friendly and you can surf as long as you want. You can get to that location by taking tram 2,4,9 from Main train station (glavni kolodvor) and make sure to get out on Vodnikova and walk few meters until you are on Savska ulica. Then go left and after 1-2 minutes you will see Optima Telekom center on your right side.
=== Public transport ===
Black-riding is possible and most of people in Zagreb who don't have monthly or yearly tickets do this in trams and in buses there is almost no control. Controllers are sometimes all over the town but mostly there is nobody for months. There are in groups of 2-3 wearing blue uniform just like the driver so if you see them just get out and wait another tram. Playing the "dumb tourist" will work because they don't have authority to ask you passport or your id and if you give them passport they can't send you bill to your home because you are not citizen of Croatia. Also they will not call police because there are city owned company and controllers have fixed paychecks so they don't give a damn too much.
=== Eating ===
Zagreb is full of students who have iksica (electronic card with which they can eat whole lunch witch soup, meat and juice for less than euro). So if you want you can go to studentski centar (savska 25) by taking trams 2.4.9 from main train station (Glavni kolodvor) to Vodnikova cross the street and go right for 5-6 minutes until you reach big open space with caffe bar and lots of people moving around. Just ask somebody on the entrace to borrow you iksica and most of people will do it. Also if you are cold and you want to you can stay in Studentski centar until 9pm and on the first floor are some couches where you can take a nap. homeless people sometimes sleep there. You can get there from main square (Jelacic platz) taking trams 17, 14 to Studentski centar station or 12 to Technical museum station (technical museum and studentski centar stations are practicly the same stations) and just across the street is studentski centar.
