It's also sort of similar to a story that happened to me about 6-7 years ago when i was traveling the world with my wife. We started our trip in Mexico and had some awesome shenanigans that included renting a car near Puerto Escondido and driving it up to Tuxtla out in the jungle. Unfortunately the entire wheel - like the whole fucking thing, still attached to part of the axle - like melted off in the middle of nowhere jungle Mexico. There were four of us with big backpacks and we were fucked. We had to push the car off into the jungle to keep it from being a danger to everyone else using the windy ass road.
Everyone stopped to help us. Literally every single person who drove by. People formed mini assistance groups trying to figure out how to help all of us out. We got a ride to the next tiny town but no one in the town had a phone. We were trying to call the rental car place (fuck you, Eurocar) to no avail. Long story short, a commercial truck driver carrying electrical equipment drove us for TEN HOURS all the way to Tuxtla, where he insisted on stopping after the fact to help us hook up with a hotel room. His big ol' truck wasn't allowed to go into the city proper and he felt awful about that. I had to essentially force him to take our money, which he most definitely did not want.
I just re-read my blog about that part. Damn, those were some pretty interesting adventures.More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.Comment

He just recommended we visit Tulum, which was a pretty magical place to see. Mexico is just fantastic.More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.Comment

. I loved Tulum will miss my sisters condo in Playa. I too use to Hitchhike in the 70’s and 80’s . Many interesting rides. My kids would kill me if I picked up any hitchhikers now. In there mind they are all Serial killers . LolComment

Yeah, that's my wife's take (despite our amazing Mexico hitchhiking experience). So I don't pick anyone up when she or my son is in the car. It's a pretty cool way to meet interesting people, though, imo. I'm just not that scared of the unknown and like to try things and meet new people, or peeples as the case may be.More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.Comment

The best mushrooms I've ever had were given to me as thanks by a hitchhiker we picked up in Kauai while on our honeymoon.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

The beaches there are white sand beaches formed from limestone (iirc) so they never get hot to the touch even when it's 95 outside. It's just incredible. Everything about that place is rad.More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.Comment
