Carpool
Here’s an option for travelers which Al Gore would definitely approve of… carpooling!
Not only will you be able to share the cost and meet interesting new people by riding in a carpool, you will also help reduce the emission of carbon dioxide and aide in protecting our environment.
Within the continent of Europe, there are several services which could help you find someone to share the cost, whether as a driver or as a passenger. Here are a couple of services which you might want to consider:
- Autostopp brings Europe together by helping drivers and passengers find each other online to organize car pools. As of today, they boast of 7,285 users and is online in 35 countries.
- Liftpool offers free ride sharing scheme within Europe.
It’s definitely worth checking out whether you can score a seat or find someone who will ride with you.
