Got insanely lucky with a ride all the way to Tulcea after 10min with a Romanian couple. Male, couldn't even write a sign before someone already stopped

Not recommendable. I wanted to cross at another place, where I passed by, because a local told me this border crossing was easier and it was shorter to get to Chisinau. But almost only trucks and few cars for local traffic, sometimes a mashrutka. After 1.5 hrs the police asked a mashrutka to take me, so finally I got out of there. Male with sign

Locals indeed seem to know this spot. Got a ride quickly north, but maybe also some luck because he had seen me standing in Tiraspol one hour earlier when someone already stopped to pick me up there. Single guy with sign

Took still some time, but not sure if there is a better place than this to Tiraspol. Got a ride with a guy from Tiraspol after around 45min. Single guy with sign

talked with a girl inside the gas station, than went outside and she took me across the border. petrom gas station after the border is a good place to continue.

lucky dude got an offer to Belgium, that i could only wish for. at leuseni i spent 4 hours asking cars for any ride to central/western europe, but nothing worked. some truck drivers told me that I should have went to Iasi checkpoint.

guy took me to proper road to leuseni, saying that here nobody would go there where i was standing. sign "LEUSEN"

bus station or gas station lukoil. some people offered to pay for the bus for me, didn't decline. everyone is friendly. can ask around people who board taxis if you could go with them.

first car, less than a minute took me to chisinau airport. a lot of place to stop, cars go slow after a roundabout.

great spot, but i was unlucky with the traffic and waited for quite some time.

easy to get with the bus, was standing before the entrance to gas station. sign "КИШЕН"

marshrutka (bus) to tiraspol took me for free, but i had to stand for an hour. was ok. sign in cyrillic "ТИРАС"

asked around to get me to gas station on the highway, going to tiraspol.

Not a particularly busy road. I suppose we got lucky (the 3rd car picked us up).

Border guards had no problem with me hitchhiking. I took a ride from the first car that stopped, which turned out to be just going only a few minutes into town. Maybe best to just walk/get a ride to the other end of Rezina and hitch from there? Note that if you choose to walk across town, you will be met with a very imposing tower of stairs :)

First car picked me up. I ended up deciding to stay in Orhei for the night, but you could also definitely use this spot for getting to Chisinau via Orhei, where there will be more traffic and folks will be nicer

A horrid spot, at least on a saturday at mid-day. Traffic was very low, and most of the cars that passed were Chişinau city-slickers that drove cars too fancy to have somebody else ride in, apparently. If you want to go to Chişinau from here, I would suggest going to Orhei first. When I thumbed in direction Orhei right up the road, the first car picked me up.

I was walking back from Trebujeni and thumbing, very low traffic here but cars have a good chance of stopping for you

I got dropped off at the exit and started walking on this road. Not many cars but feels like every one that passes is likely to pick you up.

Pretty easy to Orhei and Chisinau, harder if you’re going north. I was planning on going north but decided at the last minute to just take a ride to Orhei to check out the monasteries

If you are dropped off in GALATI and wish to go to Moldova , this is probably your best spot. You can take bus 13 to get right by this roundabout. This is a low-traffic road, but that can work to you advantage as it is quite easy for cars to stop with holding up traffic. With sign MD I was picked up and driven over the border by a young Romanian couple who were going to Moldova for petrol, which seems to be a fairly common practice

Got dropped there by my last driver which wasn’t ideal but the shoulder was big enough for cars to stop. Got a ride in a Moldova registered Porsche all the way to Bucharest, probably gained a whole hour by the outrageous speeds he was going on the national road.

So, the Spot itself is okey. Our Problem was that we arrived close to sunset. Most Drivers where in Drucks with only one seat to offer. But we were two travelers. Still found somebody. Remember to download Romanian, Cause not everybody understand English. Got a ride on a minifridge in a Diesel truck to chisinau with a sign Saying "Moldova". Was an adventure. To my fellow females: I was traveling with a men. Idk if I can recommend this spot. It is in the middle of nowhere and the Druck Drivers who picked us up, was in my opinion not the safest men to be around by yourself. Be safe.

Big learning: there is a lidl right there. The pieces of cardboard that are between the bottles of water are great as a hitchhiking sign. They are big and stabile. About the stop: it is great, there is a spend bump right in Front of it, so the people have to slow down. For some reason they were really hyped to see two hitchhikers with a "Moldova" sign. So that was fun. We found a guy how to took us to a better spot to hitchhik to rep moldavia.

Hitchhiking to Chisinau, Moldova. Lots of space for cars to stop. They see you from afar but are going pretty fast. Got a short ride here but they came back and too me to Chisinau. And of course have a sign to 'Chisinau'

Hitchhiking to Chisinau, Moldova. Perfect spot to Moldova. Write 'Chisinau' to your sign and just wait here👍 I got a ride pretty close to the capital and the border crossing went easily: they just asked one question about declaration. I'm from Finland so I don't know if that has something to do with it. Actually one of my friends had a problem at the border and he recommended to book a hostel or have some proof that you're really staying in Moldova, so I did that just in case. Good luck to everyone.

Hitchhiking to Chisinau, Moldova. Please write a sign to Tisita!! Would have gotten a ride much easier than with a sign to Moldova. You see every one that are going to Chisinau from here are passing Tisita.

Hitchhiking to Chisinau, Moldova. There is a small spot for cars to spot. I walked here because I was pretty unlucky closer to the gas station.

Hitchhiking to Chisinau, Moldova. Took a bus from Buzau to here. Really good spot but got a quite a short ride so a would recommend waiting for a longer one.

Hitchhiking to Chisinau, Moldova. Asking people on the gas station got me a ride to Buzau

Hitchhiking to Chisinau, Moldova. First went with a bus all the way to here (number 431).

A big station where all trucks stop when they're going to Slovakia, Hungary, Moldova, Romania and further. Once even the driver asked me first where I'm traveling when I arrived at the station, so it's really very easy. The best time is on Sunday evening because often the road to Slovakia is closed till 10pm and a lot of trucks are waiting for it to be open. There's a nice restaurant and you can exchange currency.

not that good spot but after some time we got a ride with very nice guy all the way to moldova border, if you go to moldova sign is good option

Great spot to Moldova. Many locals from all backgrounds travel together here in busses. Russians, Romanians, Moldovans and Ukrainiansm Don't bother using a sign, it's expected to talk to people who park there for several reasons. They are very willing to help you find a ride. Use Google translate if you don't speak the language. You will need a passport to enter Moldova and be prepared to wait at the border, but it is truly worth it. A friend and I waited for 90 minutes, most buses were full but we got great help. At the end a Moldovan tour bus took us with them through northern Moldova all the way to Chisinau, for free without any problems.

Amazing spot for diverse travels. We had a place to be - hence the longer time - but we got offered rides to nearby cities, as well as cities like Kyiv and eventually all the way to Moldova

Tried this spot for Moldova but failed after 2 hours, [Blog Post](http://www.hobospirit.com/hitchhiking-from-brasov-to-chisinau-via-iasi/)

Used this spot to hitch a lift to Bacau on my way to Moldova, took 20 mins [Blog Post](http://www.hobospirit.com/hitchhiking-from-brasov-to-chisinau-via-iasi/)

Got a lift with a guy called Coco after maybe 30 mins, use a sign and theres a petrol station up the road too. I was hitching to Moldova via Iasi [Blog Post](http://www.hobospirit.com/hitchhiking-from-brasov-to-chisinau-via-iasi/)

From Piata Mihai Viteazau you take bus number 8. You go by bus till Someseni, this is after Aurel Vlaicu. There you can find a good ramp. There is enough space to make a contact with drivers, there is a trafic light and also the cars are very slowly. From here you can go to Dej, Baia Mare or Bistrita, Ucraina, Suceava, Moldova. Do not forget to tell that you will not pay the lift. NU AM BANI, NU PLATESC. Is very important to say that after Salut, Hello.

Direction Moldova-Transnistria. This road has very low traffic but the occasional cars stop for you. You might need to get closer to the border village by village. Make sure the driver doesn't expect money before you get in the car.
