While plenty of Twitch’s IRL [in-real-life] streamers just hang out at home, chatting with viewers and reacting to videos – some do actually venture outside and create content while traveling.
One such streamer is Hitch. The 25-year-old Canadian can regularly be found hitchhiking his way across a country for thousands of viewers. His most recent trek took him across Japan and saw the streamer run into some hilarious and some embarrassing incidents. Now, though, Hitch has made the small jump across to Australia where he’s experiencing more heartwarming encounters.

Hitch recently streamed a couple of months of travels in Japan.During his July 12 stream, Hitch had been looking for a ride a few hours into his broadcast from Potato Point. As he waited by a set of traffic lights, the streamer began striking up conversation with passers-by in the hopes of securing a ride.
He struck gold when one detail-filled car pulled up alongside him and quizzed him on where he was going. As the stranger offered him a lift, Hitch obliged and grabbed his gear before introducing himself properly.
It didn’t take long for Twitch’s everyday explorer to find out that the woman was actually the mayor of the town he was in, and could take him a short way up the road.

The pair immediately struck up a rapport after Hitch asked about her history of being the mayor, if she had always wanted to be in politics, and other queries about the town.

While she offered to give him a second lift later on in the day, if he still needed help, the streamer found another kind soul to take him on his way up to Nowra, New South Wales before ultimately trying to make it to Brisbane.

As with any Hitch journey, he’s going to be sticking around for a little while longer yet, so who knows what other random encounters he will run into on his trek across Australia.
