CPH we coming babyyyy !!!!
Feb. 28, 2024, 7:03 a.m. - So our journey ends how it started... on the bus! Honestly cannot believe we made it here, I am still having nightmares about Hamburg and the whole of yesterday feels like a fever dream. We are so hyped to get to Copenhagen and see everyone, see ya later Germany!

Feb. 27, 2024, 6:08 p.m. - getting a ride in a yellow car to city center to find somewhere to sleep for the night and hopefully a bus tomorrow morning

Feb. 27, 2024, 3:11 p.m. - .

Feb. 27, 2024, 2:55 p.m. - it is not going well. we are begging so shamelessly for people to take us on the a1. hamburg we are not your biggest fans. you're making us miss Cologne...
Feb. 27, 2024, 11:51 a.m. - going into hamburg
Feb. 27, 2024, 11:04 a.m. - After an absolute grind of a morning and securing 5 hitches, we have finally arrived in Hamburg! We are rested and ready to battle for another lift out of here, especially as we've just seen another team for the first time since maidstone - it's on. We are noticing that every single service station on the A1 looks the exact same and we are so ready to be out of it, but we know this game backwards by now...
Feb. 27, 2024, 9:22 a.m. - We are heading North again and finally getting a longer ride. All feeling pretty awake after a tense last ride but at least we are no longer exhausted. Inching ever closer to Copenhagen!
Feb. 27, 2024, 8:42 a.m. - Next jump north, with a doggo and some Bulgarian people! Raya is chatting and I don't understand anything.
Feb. 27, 2024, 7:59 a.m. - A bit more North, but we're struggling for every ride.

Feb. 27, 2024, 6:07 a.m. - Going to Münster. We had some time to reflect outside this service station and we decided we hate Cologne, all our homies hate Cologne. But moving further away from it! We are all so tired and I have nothing more interesting to say
Feb. 27, 2024, 5:11 a.m. - The loveliest gentleman we could have met at 5am took us past Dortmund! Spirits rejuvenated, heading north :)
Feb. 27, 2024, 4:24 a.m. - We're leaving the rurh region baby! After 6 hours spent in this service station, an angry service station guy and Raya playing solitaire while the others slept, we are finally on our way again!
Feb. 27, 2024, 2:09 a.m. - Alas, we knew this moment would come… our luck has run out and we are stuck. we are sat inside a service station and the only cars coming through are local license plates, nowhere going anywhere. however we are at least inside and warm, not feeling too awful, and planning on trying to nap a bit intermittently before morning when we can try properly again! bread update: we have run out of bread. RIP.
Feb. 26, 2024, 10:15 p.m. - us: we're trying to go to hamburg, can you help?
guy in car: we're going to dusseldorf

guy: why?
us: to drop us on the way
guy: we're not going to hamburg
us: no but drop us on the way
guy: we're going to dusseldorf
