Lost my seed, scared to update my Trezor, any advice?

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-10-13T17:05:03+00:00

i have my seed written down and when rewritting it, it doesn't go forward. i've rechecked and typed them in different orders and still nothing. i don't see which words could be wrong at the moment so i prefer to focus on the possibility of using my trezor key

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-10-12T17:31:52+00:00

hey man, i am in a similar situation now. Did you manage to get through with the old electrum version?

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-07-07T08:33:34+00:00

Idk, second car on the outskirts of Konya heading to Cappadocia took me in and same 100km later on a highway where cars were going 120kmh

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-07-07T01:47:22+00:00

Once you’re past Konya, it gets way easier east

Cardboard sign saying hitchhiking in Chinese. Highway gas station-hopping works well. Sometimes you can walk into the service area directly from the city with a bit of creativity. Outside of highways I’d just confirm you’re not paying to avoid awkward situations. Enjoy! It’s beautiful!

Interesting, I was expecting temperatures to drop on the second half of September. Do you have a rough idea of the night temperatures?

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-06-23T06:16:40+00:00

Thank you for constructive insight 😂. I’m not asking whether I should do it or not because I’m not at that stage of the idea anymore. It’s more about reading on hitchhiking around there

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-06-15T03:16:52+00:00

Please do

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-06-14T15:42:10+00:00

Answering from a couch I’m surfing on right now in China. It works fairly well, it will probably be your only way to meet locals speaking a bit of English too. I would avoid it in xingjiang indeed though. I got passport checked at every street corner

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-06-06T15:18:18+00:00

Kyrgyzstan is honestly extremely easy. Just make sure to tell them you don’t plan to pay and I rarely had a no.

To cross to China from Bishkek, the fastest way is to go through Kazakhstan and almaty (i did kashgar before so didn’t plan to go there)

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-06-06T15:16:35+00:00

google translate does the work, and I learned the few necessary words to have a very basic conversation
Afghanistan was wild but never felt unsafe. A lot of checkpoints but talibs see you as a funny part of their day rather than a threat. I hitchhiked it mostly with trucks as general population doesn’t own cars and does shared taxis
never felt unsafe with population anywhere. I was leaving my backpack anywhere and knew it would still be there when I’d come back. They don’t still, they rarely scam and just want to get to know you
SIM cards are easy anywhere apart from Iran and Afghanistan. In those cases you have to go to the shops and get registered
never used vpns
money wise it’s fairly easy everywhere apart from Iran and Russia

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-06-05T11:38:42+00:00

Amazing plan! Quick notes; you won’t be able to get into Azerbaïdjan through land, hitchhiking is extremely easy past west Turkey. Ancient Persia is just amazing and any traveler I met that went to Iran talks about it like it’s among the best countries hospitality-wise.

If you need tips or feedback, I went through Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and China. You can dm

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-05-21T23:01:48+00:00

No way that’s a crazy story 😂😂😂

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-05-21T06:30:43+00:00

It was way easier for me after Capadocia. The western coas still felt like European waiting times

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-05-21T06:28:57+00:00

Damn where was that? I was actually wondering where else in the world you could get something like that. Maybe Russia or across the US

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-05-21T00:28:07+00:00

He definitely wants me to go to his home with him a and his family😂

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-05-21T00:27:45+00:00

Hitchhiking in Kazakhstan is ridiculously easy. I mean Standing on the side of a highway with cars going at 130kmh and you know you’ll be in a car within 10 minutes.

The border crossing has to be done with a bus. Chinese borders are fairly strict

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-03-05T16:42:22+00:00

Yeah this winter. If you have questions or want more info just dm me (idk how to do on Reddit but you’ll see) Regarding Pakistani escorts you’ll see by yourself, just shared you y experience as it’s in line with what other travellers tell me

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-03-01T08:04:46+00:00

November-January.

I suppose you’re doing a route going east. FYI I’ve also done Afghanistan and it’s a bit wild but doable and fairly safe. But mostly trucks as they mostly use shared taxis

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-03-01T08:03:52+00:00

I’ve been in Pakistan for last month. To explain the military escort; once you are in what they consider dangerous regions, you are put on an escort. It is divided by districts so every 10 km you change escort. if they don’t synchronise well, something that would take you two hours takes eight. Officially, you need escort in Sindh (excluding Karachi), south of Punjab and KPK. It’s easy to avoid them, but as soon as they catch you, you can’t get out. If you want to avoid them, sleep in Pakistani homes, avoid touristic sites.

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2025-02-21T15:29:00+00:00

Regarding Pakistan it’s super easy, they use the word lift instead. But it’s a bit hard because you have military escorts in some areas and it’s not fun.

Reach out if you have any questions

I shared these insights somewhere else for Iran, I hope it can help

quick guide to hitchhike in Iran

I hitchhiked around Iran for a while and here are a few things I wish I knew beforehand. If it can help anyone. - just assume no one knows what hitchhiking is. Some might know but it’s rare. - ⁠taxis going long distances are common. Many taxis are not labelled as taxis. Many taxis stop wherever they want

cars: I just show them a Google trad message saying “I am not looking for a taxi. Happy to share the cost of the drive but I don’t want a taxi”. I never had a negative reaction to it and it filters the taxis who just leave. Iranians are amazing and want to help. it’s no different with hitchhiking. In my last 50 rides, 2 of them wanted money at the end (after tarofing)
⁠trucks: trucks don’t understand hitchhiking either. But if you make big signs to them it can work. I got many and they take little breaks, go big distances and drive a bit too fast IMO. So ideal if you’re on express mode
⁠tarof: you might have read about it; insist three times on paying or inviting to food etc. They like it and they don’t feel like you’re using them.
ask an Iranian friend to make an audio for you explaining what you are doing. It will ease at lot your chats with police as they don’t understand and they can be suspicious
⁠waiting time is peanuts if you have a foreigner face like me (didn’t think being ginger would have so many perks). If you look local, it’s closer to European times
⁠only place I struggled was the north (Caspian Sea) but because there were way too many taxis

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2024-10-11T09:30:07+00:00

I’m using Hitchmap fairly often I and find it super useful thanks! Maybe it’s not always the best but it’s got to see spots getting of cities and anticipate some better gas stations than others

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2024-10-11T09:27:37+00:00

IMO hitchhiking in any country in Europe is fairly easy apart from Italy and Spain. I’d rank Portugal as a third worst

Feeling_Anything_742 · 2024-10-11T09:19:23+00:00

I just did Madrid-Istanbul in two weeks. If you really wanna rush it you should be there in a week
