When was your last hitchhiking trip? Looking forward to yet the next!? Try this winter... Spend New Year somewhere completely random, maybe even with your driver! Hitching is really relatively easy in winter: no hitching queues, people don't like to leave hitchers standing in the cold, and why wait until spring or summer?
It also gets you into gear for the next hitchhiking week in Europe, taking place on 789, the 7th of August 2009. According to the latest polls, with 29 34 people voting already, almost 50% of the votes are for Ukraine, mainly Odessa. We invite you to cast <i>your</i> vote and to share your opinion.
<strong>Slogans: seven, eight, nine! </strong
What rimes with nine! We need a good catchy slogan to accompany this unique event. What about: 789, join the hitchhikers storyline, [[789/slogans]]
<strong>New website - what css-geeks wanted!</strong>So we have set up a new website blabla. Very tweakable, many ideas for design, we need for a location to be chosenhelp!http://hitchwiki.org/forum/?q=content/789 (url will change) ===End of txt===Happy hitching! - proposed form of going further/ ----==Notes==
There's already a [http://hitchwiki.org/forum/?q=node/6 vote] going on on the forum. This vote should not be binding but rather consultative. The best would be to reach a consensus through discussion and keep the vote for last resort (if we can't agree).
The voting stays open as a permanent opinion survey (you can edit your vote). For now 29 people gave their voice to the voting already, most of them voted for Ukraine, mainly Odessa. So it looks like it'll be Ukraine, but if you're convinced that another place is so much better, make yourself heard.
One particularly sensible point is: how the local citizenry and administration feel towards us. If the third most popular choice shows to have a really cool mayor that wants nothing more than a crowd of hitch-hikers, then we should go for them.
For that, we need support from the local communities. It would be a good idea to contact the local people with whatever tool available in the, say top 6 cities, and see if they can find an arrangement with the people they elected.
