Highway Hazards: A Texan Hitchhiker

Stand-up comedian Ben McWilliams has spent the last three years navigating the quirks, chaos, and unspoken rules of life in Lithuania—and let’s just say, it hasn’t always been smooth sailing. Born in New Mexico and raised in Texas, Ben has hitchhiked across the globe—surviving the wilds of Mongolia, wandering through Serbia, and collecting outrageous stories along the way. But nothing could prepare him for the adventure (or misadventure) of living in the Baltics. In Highway Hazard, Ben shares firsthand tales of culture shock, language mix-ups, and the hilariously bizarre situations that only seem to happen to him. From encounters with overly blunt Lithuanians to getting into a car with a member of the mafia, his storytelling captures the beauty, absurdity, and confusion of expat life. 🔥 Expect mishaps. Expect laughs. But don’t expect Ben to find his way home anytime soon. 🔥 #tallinnfringe2026
