Tjerk used the material he collected and the people he met along his 2,700 kilometre journey to created “Wanted: Caravan Hitch”, a theatrical performance. This perfomance was presented on the 11th of January 2012 at the Goethe-Institut Rotterdam, and was supported by the Hungarian and Austrian embassies and the rest of the EUNIC cluster.

The performance was a considerable success, and toured Europe after its first presentation in Rotterdam.
