u/discreet1: “My little brother hitchhikes a lot. He was trying to hitch to Valdez Alaska to run a half marathon there before hitching to my parents house near Fairbanks. He gets picked up near seattle by a woman. They’re chatting and my brother is telling her the story of how he rode his bike from Alaska to Argentina. The woman says her neighbors son had done the same thing.
Turns out she was my parents next door neighbor. Edit: he’s agreed to do an AMA since there was so much interest. He’s checking out this ‘reading it’ thing.”
