Hmmm..trip overland to India..need to get a bit stoned to start about that..
well..I worked a bit in the black after I came back from Scandinavia
some fellow wanted his house front painted..I made a mess of it
but I cared a shit..i got the bucks..don't recall exactly when I started..
my God..i'm stoned this morning anyway..left here in my village..
my dad came to see me off..I stood 1 h..bloody hell in my own village
to get a ride out..towards Verviers-Aachen(Germany)took my 4 rides..
in Germany hitch hiking is a piece of cake..you can get from rastst?tte
to rastst?tte=mostly service stations on the highway as well..reached quite
a good distance on day one..i think I slept in the bushes of some service
rast?tte around W?rzburg..next morning..wash up in the toilet facilities..
ride towards M?nchen(Bavaria)I got picked up by some hippies from over
there..they lived in a house in M?nchen..stayed overnight there...
next morning..I noticed..things were stolen out of my rucksack..mainly food
I took from Belgium to get through the first week of travell..some saucages,
jam,and some other things..bloody fuckers anyway..someone was hungry
apparently??got a ride towards Austria..
Salzburg..awww..loveley scenery in Austria..
it's my favorite country in Europe..after Norway
i suppose i slept somewhere in Austria that day..don't know where..
bloody hell..it was 1972??and lots of folks were on the way to mystical INDIA..
Ravi Shankar had been on Woodstock with his sitar..
Harrison wasin Rishikesh etc..it was a trip towards the unknown..the mysteriuous!!
my first goal was reaching Istanbul..got a ride in Austria with a German
from Berlin..travelling in a hippie van..he was going to Greece..we managed
to get just into Yougoslavia that day..bit after Maribor..
will tell more later on..if you are interested that is??
