Hitchhiking has a lot of stigma attached to it. General opinions on this specific way to travel vary throughout history and now it has begun to grow in popularity once again. This thesis deals with the issue of hitchhiking in certain European countries. The countries were selected based on their accessibility from the Czech Republic. It first discusses the issue of placing hitchhiking into scientific disciplines and the reasons for such placement and how the chosen discipline has affected hitchhiking. It further mentions other factors that may have contributed to hitchhiking in the past or do so today. The main part of the thesis consists of a map that is comparing the described countries in terms of their accessibility for hitchhikers. It could also be explained as a rating of how developed and approachable it is to do hitchhiking in these selected areas.
