Revisiting My FAVORITE Lithuanian City - Autumn in Kaunas

[@fernandovargas7562]

Cool video … Go Kaunas go….

[@jacintas1503]

So happy to see you're enjoying Lithuania! Definitely visit Pazaislis Monastery next time you're in Kaunas!

[@JC4Russia]

Hello friend

[@SisterSherryDoingStuff]

I tend to judge a city by it's walkability and it's green space. Beautiful walk you two had.

[@laura-bronner]

Kaunas definitely ticks the boxes on both of those things!

[@il42]

That was quite a walk 😯 I am so happy you're enjoying my city ♥️

[@JustinasD]

It's nice to see Americans enjoying my beloved city :)

[@edgarask7210]

If you want good atmosphere in Zalgirio Arena you have to go to a Euroleague game. Its allways full and the atmposhere is one of the bests in Europe .

[@andriusversinskas4654]

Yep, Euroleague game is a must-visit in Lithuania.

[@doviart-fashiondesignersli5161]

It was so nostalgic to see the city I grew up in and walk the streets, I was walking almost every day, with you. Btw the basilica used to be a part of a huge TV and electronic factory my father worked. Inside that tower was an animation studio wher in the 60s the first Lithuanian animation was made. Happy you are falling in love with Kaunas.

I really love your videos ❤ lightness,great energy and effortlessness just shines through it all 🌻🌻🌻and finding videos about my motherland just made me so happy 😍 Kaunas is my favorite town in Lithuania,maybe because of all those years spent there as a student,then getting my first proper job there,or maybe because this town really has it's own charm, no matter how long one stays there. Thanks a lot for making these videos and the respect with which you describe your suroundings, wherever you travel ,it just shows what a great person you are yourself ❤. Best of luck and good vibes to you from Lithuania 💛💚❤️ 🤗

Hey Laura! Just wanted to say, that I absolutely adore the way you pronounce Utena! :)

[@krepsht8997]

From Kaunas you should go towards Jurbarkas... Panoramic road + few old scastles.

You should go to Birstonas or Druskininkai (Lithuanian spa towns) and see the beauty of Lithuanian pine forests.

[@ligitaurbonaite517]

Greetings! I can’t believe you walked all the wayyy from city centre to that bridge and back! Jeeez

[@fernandovargas7562]

Beautiful lady too…

[@KSfreaky]

it always feels strange to see your own home in someone else's video :D.

[@deplorablepatriot9763]

Kaunas is where my mother is from. I'm an American from Chicago. I hope to visit Lithuania in my lifetime.

[@zeppelin0110]

Kaunas is a great city for walking around. Less overwhelming than Vilnius.

[@DKDove]

Come and visit in Žalgiris Euroleague game, it will be crowdy lots lots of more!

[@andriuscesonis6558]

You made my day, Kaunas is amazing. Also, next time You visit Kaunas and there is a Euroleague game, let me know, tickets on me and @Edgaras K I guess :), or all we all contribute, but you need to see Kaunas people being so passionate about Žalgiris as of craft beer and delicious Lithuanian food.

[@aidasskruodys7313]

Hope you visit Pazaislis Monastery. It's an example of Italian baroque architecture. It's supposedly the largest structure in Lithuania. It was built in 1662. It's on T Masiulio St. 31 Kaunas. Open 11:00am - 5pm. It has a very interesting history.

[@Moliugas89]

What do you mean "the largest structure"? :O

[@Bdrbs]

@@Moliugas89 he means the largest monastery structure in square meters.

[@shriajayr.parihar8840]

i saw your 5 videos on lithuania . marvellous ----------------------love from india

[@gowithzy]

Lovely video !!!:) Volfas Engelman is my favourite beer!!! Basketball is in our hearts!!!:)

[@don_kandon6006]

There is a joke running around, that there is only 1 good thing in Vilnius- the highway to Kaunas :D p.s. Lithuanian, born and bred in Kaunas, but been living abroad for 20 years (USA, CT and Norway). Your videos about Nida almost made me, a grown man cry. So many sentiments. Sea side is amazing, the pine forest mix with dunes and sea. The smell of sand, pine trees, jod (chemical element that sea produces), is tranquillic. It is kind of a memory just like you had about your time with parents in ocean side of usa, i believe cape cod and whatnot. Im quite sure you had a few tears running when you were sitting in Smiltyne beach.

[@magadanas87]

Nice to watch, giving 👍 just for your last word.. Sounds so nice to my ears ☺️ you need to visit Druskininkai and Birštonas 👈 and Marijampolė 😁

[@DepozidoX]

I think that the fascination with Kaunas among many people stems from it being probably the most 'authentic' Lithuanian city, whereas, say, Vilnius, is much more multicultural. The reason being that during the interwar period when Lithuania was independent, Vilnius had been occupied by Poland, and thus Kaunas became the "temporary capital" city, which means that it was most subject to the tastes of Lithuanian elite. Other Lithuanian cities have much more foreign influence. For example, Klaipėda is a wholly Germanic city, having a lot of Prussian sensibilities. On the other hand, Šiauliai is the most typical "Soviet" style city, as most of it was destroyed during WWII and had to be rebuilt by the Soviets. Whereas presently the "new/modern" districts in Vilnius are built in a Nordic/Scandinavian style. I find it fascinating how the architecture tells us a lot about the most influential cultural norms of the time.

[@agnesokolnikiene753]

it is so nice to see that You loved this city, because I myself am from Kaunas, and love this city sooo much, so I am very happy, that people from other countries loves it too! :) Also, I'm interested what do You think about people here, were they friendly and helpful, or maybe You had some other experiences? :)

[@ak47323]

These views from Panemune bridge were so amazing in late September/early October as the leaves were starting to change colors... November is less attractive but very beautiful views nevertheless!

[@arvydasmickus6372]

Buen provecho..!🍺😸

[@robcallaghan5252]

Hi Laura, just back from a day trip to Kaunas. Thank you for sharing your favourite (correct spelling🤣) places which made our trip memorable. Regards rob

[@zivile227]

You should go to Kadagiu slėnis :)

[@godadzene]

Kaunas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@S3l3ct1ve]

that was quite the walk indeed :)

[@laura-bronner]

26km in the end I believe!

[@dimitrijuszigunovas3782]

thank you for the video

[@feyzanursoyirgaz4131]

The detail I was stuck on in the whole video was the crow on 13:07.. Rewinded maybe 5 times to figure out what kind of animal was that. First thought it was a cat, then a puppy, a rabbit..

[@juliusatidukraitis6199]

Nice trip, but why don't you go to one of the best museum in LT "IX fort" in Kaunas? It is so interesting!

[@laura-bronner]

I went to the IX Fort on my last trip to Kaunas. A very fascinating museum!

[@blueeyedbaer]

I used to live in that red brick house at 4:50!

[@NostalgicMem0ries]

Kaunas is dubbed heart of Lithuania ;)

[@laura-bronner]

I can see why!

[@dice3000]

Excuse me but the best burgers in Kaunas are from Disco Burger. Baking Bad is also quite good though.

[@laura-bronner]

ok I'll have to check them out on my next trip!

@@laura-bronner Try 'Peledine' as well :) It is the best one for me :)

It was closed for the holiday weekend unfortunately. Tried to go but it wasn’t open.

[@vladasmickevicius5642]

You in Kaunas now???!!!

[@laura-bronner]

No, this was a few weekends ago at the beginning of November.

[@vytautasjacunskas1133]

You chose wrong game :) Euroleague match or game vs Vilnius team would show more real Lithuanian Basketball feeling. :) try to go, when Lithuanian team will play :)

[@laura-bronner]

I figured most people would say that, but that was the only game that was on while we were there. Although I've heard they're not exactly doing so well in Euroleague this year?

[@vytautasjacunskas1133]

@@laura-bronner they are not doing great this year, but still atmosphere is different in these games as I know (I am from Vilnius so I support other team, but still I watch other Lithuanian teams in European tournamets), because attendancy is much higher in these matches (sometimes it is even sold-outs), so it is diffrenet feeling from the one you saw :)

[@auricgoldfinger8478]

There is a 5 second segment that needs to be edited out- toward the first third of the video. I believe that it shows Luc’s head from behind and to the right. It was dangerously close. Only soliloquy allowed

Kaunas as favourite Lithuanian city? You really have to be nuts to say something like that.

[@GeneratorOfDarkness]

Many foreigners prefer Kaunas over Vilnius.

[@arturasdanchelis3771]

@@GeneratorOfDarkness Very bad taste. How on earth You can compare a city with one of most hustorical and large old towns in Europe, which is in Vilnius, hills, parks, forests, skyscrapers, milions of lakes, which is also Vilnius...with provincial boring Kaunas. This is not even normal.

[@bugazzzzz]

Simple. Vilnius is quite fake and "touristy". Kaunas is the real Lithuania.
