Previous hitchgatherings took place in France, Ukraine and Portugal. This year The Hitchgathering is going to be organized on a beautiful Kara Dere beach near Byala, Bulgaria. The event starts on 5 August 2011 and lasts at least a few days, or as long as people wish to stay. Similarly, the program is made by the participants, on the spot. Anyone can hold a workshop, facilitate team games or whatever they think might contribute to the success of the event.
"Go for it! You won't regret it. It's a way to get out of your comfort zone, to challenge yourself, but also to witness that there still are nice people on this planet that are willing to share." says a hitchhiker from Guatemala. "It's a great festival where you can meet other hitchhikers, share stories and knowledge, and have a freaking good time! But you really have to want to hitch, as there will be hard moments when u have to see the adventure in it." a Hungarian hitchhiker adds.
"Hopefully the reason why you don't see that many hitchhikers on the road is that they already got a ride." the volunteers organizing The Hitchgathering state. "We wish that this event contributes to a creation of a more open, trust-filled and sustainable society... and proves the drivers that we don't bite!"
