{{789}}
2008 : The [[Project 888|888 project]] On ''' 08/08/08''' , hitchhikers from all over the world converged to Paris, for the first european hitchiking week. ** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v==Where==pJj1oWlVJTY See the trailer of the documentary project] ** [http://www.flickr.com/groups/paris-888/pool/ Some pics there].
2010 : Let's choose a new destination ! Helsinki ? Moscou ? Where ever you want ! Just some importants things have to been said :
** We need to pick a place where many people can come without visas and where we have a local organizer.
** The necessity of having a local coordinator/support, like an HH club can be the best.
=== PHILOSOPHY ===
From the 888 to the 789, hitchikers think that the event is more to promote the concept of Hitch-hiking rather than to all meet up somewhere and have a good time and just drink. This is why the proposal of meeting outside a city was ruled out: we want to be seen by strangers and make some actions in the city ; for example at the 789 in Odessa, we have done a flashmobs about hitchiking to somewhere special and next try to get a lift to the event's place.
==Suggested cities:=DESTINATION ===Moved to [[6810]].
===Krakow (Cracow), PologneTASK LIST===*+: In the centre of EU -good access from every Euro country*+: Big grassy open space next to the Old Town to make a meeting*+: Places to get a full dinner for 2-4 euro*-: Shengen space. Tough visa for Russians, Bellarussians, Turkish, Yougoslavians*-: It's strictly forbidden to drink alcohol in public spaces!*-: polish police is usually unkind, so better to have everything legal, in Krakow - touristic capital of Poland - they might not be interested in having banch of dirty hhikers...
