August 2022. European Hitch Hike gathering.
same pace as 11 years ago, that i was lucky to go to.
Kara Dere Beach, the Black Sea, Bulgaria. "5-08-22". "5-Aug-22".
see: https://hitchwiki.org/en/Hitchgathering/2011

from the Hitchgathering Facebook Group:
Hello dear friends & hitchfamily,

"maybe some of you don't know, but [the HH email] group actually started after the 2011 hitchgathering that was happening at Kara Dere Beach in Bulgaria. Ca. 150 people came and for many of us it was a life changing event that greatly impacted the next years of our lives. We formed some friendships that are still strong today and had several post-gatherings that also resulted in the a-flat nomad base in Berlin, an open house for hitchhikers that existed all through 2012. This year, 11 years after '11, we will have a reunion hitchgathering at Kara Dere Beach in Bulgaria, the same location as the 2011 hitchgathering. In the spirit of the hitchgathering, this is of course an invitation open to all hitchhikers.
We meet at 05/08/22, at Kara Dere Beach Bulgaria.

Here you'll find some info about the 2011 gathering and location:
https://hitchwiki.org/en/Hitchgathering/2011

5-8-11 is the fourth edition of the annual European Hitchhiking Gathering. It is going to take place in Kara Dere at the Black Sea coast of Bulgaria. (View it on Google Maps.)
