HI! I'm Justina and in this video I explain some prejudices and false stereotypes about Lithuania. Did you think that: Lithuania is a part of Russia? Or that Lithuanians speak Russian? Is Riga the capital of Lithuania? Or is Lithuania a slavic country? Find out answers to this and more in this video.
---
I'm travelling around all 60 municipalities of Lithuania, a small country in the north of Europe.

I'm American from NY,not NYC tho,and due to covid I met a lithuanian girl randomly on a video game. She was shocked I'd ever heard of Lithuania and even more surprised I knew where it was. We met in Cyprus due to our borders being closed to one another in May. I never thought I could ever possibly allow myself to fall in love again and truly had given up. I'm a very hardworking guy and most women don't have an interest in a man that lays brick and chisels stone for a living. Her? Not even close to the case. She has been the most polite,interesting,understanding,intelligent, cultured and independent woman I've ever met. By far the most beautiful as well. So beautiful in fact that after talking to her for a few months and then seeing her picture far later in our friendship, it actually made me extremely shy and stumbling over my words. It also made me completely embarrassed to show her my picture. I'm not a terrible looking guy and I am in shape but this girl looks like a model and I'm nothing special at all...Except to her. I'm moving there twords the end of 2022,transferring my small business. It will be an honor to help restore some of the old stone and brick buildings there and after reading more about the country, I couldn't be more proud that I have the chance in my lifetime to be a part of keeping Lithuanian history alive and standing. Plus, I can't think of a better way to say thank you to the universe for handing me such a gift as her. She's actually worried that when I get there that my eye will wander because of how many beautiful women are there. So, I figure a ring will hopefully take care of that. Just one problem though,I have to learn Lithuanian to speak to her parents and grandparents. Not an easy language but honestly, I'd do anything for her... So for anyone reading this,when it comes to a Lithuanian woman,be respectful and remember that they were the first to leave the soviet union and their independent spirit is nothing to step on at all. It can be intimidating but honestly,you get into the heart of a Lithuanian woman and you will NEVER have the need to find another. I can't imagine where or what I would be with out her. Love you Ieva❤

Lithuania is a beautiful country. Not many people know that and even though I am not from Lithuania I love bragging about how wonderful it is and how much I'd love to make some more people visit this beautiful country! I really enjoyed every day my family would take me there, because it is really just stunning. We were in Klaipeda very often as well as in Palanga and I must say that it really is stunning! It has beautiful nature but also culture and the food as well! Though I can also say that those false facts are truly used often, while talking with others I am sure I've heard every single one already but I try my best to tell them what the real facts there are ;) Greetings from Germany!

Greetings from New Zealand. Thank you very much Justina for all the videos on your channel, they have brought back a lot of happy memories for me. Between summer 2000 and summer 2002 I spent about 4 months holidaying in Lithuania, while I was based in the UK. Thanks to some very good Lithuanian friends that I made, I got to see quite a bit of the countryside, not just Kaunas and Vilnius. In 2017 I was lucky enough to make a return trip to Lithuania as well and see how things had changed. Lithuania is a terrific place to visit. I found the Lithuanian people to be very friendly, helpful, and open to meeting foreigners. In my opinion Vilnius is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. The summers in Lithuania were lovely and warm, and the winters very beautiful as well with the snow and ice. For me the term "Eastern Europe" is more historical than geographical. It brings to mind life behind the iron curtain in the 70s and the 80s, in other words queues, poor infrastructure, poor service, drab food, and grey life generally. Life didn't seem to be like that in Lithuania in the year 2000 and would be even less so now. I noticed that people from other countries in the region didn't want to be associated with the term either. I think 'Eastern Europe' probably only exists in a couple of ex-Soviet non-EU countries now.

About false stereotypes, I remember an interview to Arvidas Sabonis when he came in Italy to play with USSR national team against Italy: he said "call me Soviet if you want, but please don't call me Russian, because I'm not Russian!". He was very brave, because it was Soviet ages

I am the family historian, so I have looked into the story of their past. The grandfather came from Sunkariai, the grandmother came from Anksolis, Laizuva, Do you know where these places are?

It's very nice that you try to find their roots! I don't know these places, they are very small but I looked them up, there actually are a few Šunkariai in Lithuania, but the biggest settlement is in Šakiai district, near the border to Russian Kaliningrad, although it is also just a few houses. I can't find Anksolis, only people having the surname, but Laižuva is a small town in Mažeikiai district near the border to Latvia and it is quite old, first mentioned in history in XV century. But it suffered a lot during WWII, the town was on the front lines and it was burned down. After war there were some partizans fighting against the soviets too. But the town is fine now, there is a very old school and it has museum there, maybe your relatives attended it? I hope this is helpful 🙂

As a french, who grew up in the 90's and was a teenager in the early 2000's, yes, I see myself and many of my friends and relatives in this vision of Lithuania. For a french, after Germany, and beyond Poland or Austria, it's a sort of Terra Incognita, of which you speak only two or three times, in history class, or that you read about in litterature. For exemple, many of my friends and relatives couldn't place it on a map, or think it"s part of Russia. I, myself, get interested with Lithuania and the Baltic countries in my late teenage years, after reading a fantasy novella, set in a medieval/Renaissance Europe, where a knight and a magician go eastward to study the "strange magic of a people living beyond the Empire's frontier", and the description of landscapes and culture was very close to the Baltic. But fortunatly, I see more and more people, many of them young (born after 2000 and beyond) who know a lot better about this country. I, myself, would love to visit Lithuania, one day, soon I hope. ^^

Well to be correct... Lithuanian or Lietuvių Kalba is not THE OLDEST, all languages are old and everyone evolved in its own time, Lithuanian languages is conservative and rich with vaucabulary, sounds of Proto-Indo-European, even Lithuanians today are found to be ancestors of Hunter-Gatherer whom came to Europe. Today Lithuanian is placed with Latin, Sanskrit, Hittite, Ancient Greek and many more now dead languages. That means just that is as old as when those languages above where written since Lithuanians was written in Middle ages when countrie first time adapted Latin Alfabet and for the first time languages was writen down in middle of 1500th century. LITHUANIA was also called Romuva before 1009.

My great great grandpa came to the US when he was 16 and the Russians tried to force him into their army. My mom always told me “We’re Lithuanian. We’re high class Poles, we work hard and we’re smart, we take care of each other and we don’t take shit from nobody.”

Culturally and geographically Estonia may be Baltic but Estonian is a Finnic language that doesn't even belong in Indo-European family. I tried to study Lithuanian a bit, mostly out of curiosity since I have no connection to this country, only as a potential tourist and because I like the songs of Žalvarinis. Although not Slavic itself, Lithuanian does have similarities with those languages such as: 1) coincidence of singular genitive with plural nominative for feminine nouns; 2) articles aren't used, the only Slavic exceptions are Bulgarian and Macedonian; 3) "nors" seems to be related to "norėti". Same equivalence can be observed in Slavic languages, though the words sound completely different from Lithuanian; 4) Phrases such as "Nors jau raudona, bet dar šilta can be translated to them without sounding broken. 5) Letter "f" is foreign to Slavic languages just as it is to Lithuanian: all words containing it are loanwords. But all those similarities are only revealed in process of learning and aren't of much help for novice or a complete stranger.

Hey, I think it's hard for foreigners to find a job in Lithuania (maybe bc older people don't speak english). I see most of them working in food delivery. Also I wouldn't say it's a poor country but most of the people have salaries on the lower side, that's why it's a tricky question with a part time job. Eventually, I think if you could find reliable job and accommodation prior your arrival, things could be okey. One thing I know for sure - Lithuania is a wonderful place for its scenery and nature :-)

5.7% might consider themselves Polish but only culturally and resulting from many centuries of Polonization. Genetically they’re Baltic and hold Lithuanian passport as only one citizenship is legally permitted. I would struggle to call them a minority if all of their ancestry can be traced back to Lithuania proper… On the other hand, the Russian minority resulted from actual migrations.
