Following the A26 is a better option if you want to go rather quickly to south of France. Hitchhiking through the metropole of Paris is time consuming.

To go via the A26 southwards direction Reims its quite senseless to ask people at the "Aire de Phalempin". Rather let someone take you to the Peage right before the junction between A1/A26. Stand at the Peage with a Sign "A26/Reims" makes more sense.
