== Hitchhiking out ==
===South===
From the airport it's fairly easy to get a lift to major Dutch cities to the south-west, via the [[A1]] motorway (use a sign with 'A1'), or to [[Groningen]] via [[Oldenburg (Oldenburg)]] to the west. The best place to stand is at the exit to the long-stay car parks, making sure you can see the number plates of cars where they pause to exit. (Cars with yellow and black plates are likely to be heading to the Netherlands, and German cars tell you where they are from by the first two or three letters on them.)
There is a bus stop just before the highway entrance, where car can stop in order to take you.
If you want to go south, you can also go to Wildeshausen, where you can get to [[Raststätte|Raststätte Wildeshausen]] on the A1. You can take the bus in Bremen from the Hauptbahnof until Wildseshausen Bahnhof. It take something like one hour fifteen to get there, and it cost EUR 3. From Wildeshausen train station you have to walk north for 20 minutes, pass the bridge over the Autobahn, then take left, and you will find the petrol station. (Information translated from French hitchwikihitchhike). ===North===A good option for heading north beyond Hamburg is the [[Raststätte|Raststätte Wildeshausen]] to the south of Bremen. Although this seems out of the way in the wrong direction, it is a great spot for rides up the A1, and the train to Wildeshausen (RB58 Direction Osnabrück) runs at least some of the time without ticket inspectors. From the Wildeshausen train station, it is a 20 minute walk to the raststätte, where you can find many rides going to Hamburg or Scandanavia.
