The hitchhike from Copenhagen to Frankfurt/Main was probably the luckiest hitchhike I've ever done. After getting three lifts quickly out of Denmark I got left near Hamburg at a service station with hundreds of rock fans coming back from the Wacken festival, mostly travelling southwards, mostly with space in their cars and mostly open-minded enough to take hitchhikers. I hit hitchhiking gold!

Copenhagen was amazing. I'm not a fan of how much the city bows down to tourists, or how expensive everything is, but seeing Diego and many other HC members again was great fun and I ended up staying an extra night. The pictures in part 1 are of a day spent exploring the city, meeting friends who I hadn't seen since June and waiting for the party later that night...

Diego had gathered 20-25 HC and Couch Surfing members together for a party in Copenhagen. I met several people I knew previously and we ended up quite drunk in Dan's house. The next morning I gave up hitchhiking as I'd started too late, so spent an extra night on Diego's bed and left early the next morning.
