    If you guys can hitchhike all your way down to the south,that would be amazing!It'll be a fantastic experience in your life time you'll remember forever,You couple will be a genuine Legend!Here's some of my advice:each time hitchhike only a few hundred kilometers,don't take truck,it's unsafe,only sedan,Do please tie your seat belt wherever you sit in the front or back seat,further the distance each hichhiking,less car can directly take you there,standing near toll booth at the outskirt of city (上下高速路口)with a sign like you wrote can be very helpful,sometimes the booth staff can help you a lot!I suggest this route map for you: Chang Chun(长春) to Shenyang(沈阳),Shengyang to Qin Huang Dao(秦皇岛),Qin Huang Dao to Tangshan(唐山),Tangshan to Beijing(北京) or Tianjin(天津),Beijing or Tianjin to Shi Jiazhuang(石家庄),Shi Jiazhuang to Zhenzhou(郑州),then to Wuhan(武汉),then to Changsha(长沙),then to Guangzhou(广州),That'll be extraordinary achievement,wish you guys stay safe and sound,take your time,have the best time in your life!

    You're in China where the people are friendly and the country is pretty safe. So people dont think twice to pickup hitchhikers.
    I did a similar stunt in Europe. Was on the highway and saw drivers doing quick stops at portable toilets placed at the kerb of the highlway. The moment me and a friend stood by the toilets and thumping for a ride, no one stopped for a good 2 hours. Most slowed down to stop and then sped off. Couldn't blame them. A thousand things must have crossed their mind. "Are they muggers, will I be robbed, get out of the way" 😁😁

    I can only imagine how long you would be standing if in the UK before someone even stopped, even ones that did they would probably only stop to ask what you may be selling.
    For the very first car to stop was quite something, shear luck or not, the fact he was going all the way remarkable.
    What you should do for a new adventure is try and Hitchhike the World in 80 Days, works out you would only need to cover just over 311 miles per day, I think it could be easy done, maybe in even less than 80 days.
