From Ireland. I lived in Australia for two years, and London for 6. Back in Ireland now.
Train travel:
If using public transport, I'll always take a train where possible, unless it's unjustifiably more expensive than buses (in the UK). I keep a good record of all routes travelled.
Hitchhiking:
Something of a novice hitchhiker, having only done two meaningful trips by this method of travel - Georgia/Armenian and also Israel. Typically hitchhiked alone, but on occasion hitched with others who I met at stops etc.
