[@jables1able]

Rupert Grech pretty much everything he said is awesome to check out. But my favourite place was Uzupis for the bohemian feel, the new town and I loved the old town too! Try Zeppelina (zeppelin cabbage dumplings). if you’re a beer drinker you’ll have a great time because it’s really cheap and really good. There is a cafe right next to the angel statue in Uzupis that makes an incredible coffee. I stayed in the old town and it was perfect and affordable too. If you can get to Trakai which is just a little bit out of the city, do it. Also if you get time Check Kaunas and Klaipeda they are both really nice too! The coolest thing about Vilnius is that the people are really friendly. It’s also a bit rough around the edges so it feels very real and not like you’re going to a theme park.

I’ve heard of Lithuania but had no idea how beautiful this country was until I came across your channel.

My grandpas grandparents are from Lithuania, but because that was so many generations ago, he doesn’t know much about the country. My moms parents are both immigrants from Norway so I grew up with Nordic culture a lot, and because I enjoyed learning so much about Norway I also wanted to learn about the rest of my heritage, so I visited Lithuania with my dad. Because I’m from America, I was kind of scared because nobody goes there, and I wanted my plane ticket to be worth the money. Oh boy, it sure was worth the money. I enjoyed Vilnius so much. It is a magical city. Some of the stuff I missed though! I wanted to see all of Lithuania, including the town my 5th cousins live, Kaunas, Klaipeda Nida in just 5 days. It felt kind of rushed at times. But it was a great experience. It feels so modern in some ways like the tech district you mentioned, but then it also feels super old. I just love it! The people were super nice too, I definitely didn’t sense any fakeness, which I often get in the United States. I have trouble keeping up a fake attitude and often I just have a “resting bitch face” and I didn’t feel so uncomfortable for it when I was there lol. I am trying to go there for college for a semester, it’s so much cheaper then United States college which can go up to $45k. But I am kind of scared of the weather. Where I live it does not go under 10 degrees Celsius.. but I am going to try, because I really love the city and country. I will probably try to go to vilniaus dailes akademija because I’m an animation major :D I don’t know which location I will be at. But I really enjoyed all the Lithuania cities ❤️ and I can see them if I want to anyways because it’s not a big country. This video just made me that much more excited to go back

There is no bad weather, just bad clothes, welcome ))

Nice to hear you liked it. My father was form Lithuania and I was born in the UK. I live in Vilnius now. I feel safe, secure and really think this is a place to start a family.

I have been to Vingis Park; I did capoeira there. It is really big park almost a forest. Best bar in the old town is Bukowski if you ask me. Trust me its a classic place. Lots of love from Indian in Klaipeda.

[@borissecciani6225]

super modern and historical areas side by side, extremely clean with lush green spaces...you really did a good job in promoting your hometown Jakob.

[@jingxinglu6889]

Vilnius is already a beautiful city and Jacob Laukaitis who has a beautiful heart makes this city and country proud. Can't wait wearing your exploiror shirt to visit Vilnius and rest of the world.

[@chantallemaritz3138]

Vilnius and the rest of Lithuania is high on my bucketlist. My great grandfather was born there but escaped to South Africa before the 2nd WW. Hoping to visit next year December

[@GPosner8]

You are a wonderful ambassador for your lovely city. Your pride for your city, the people and your country’s history is inspiring. I look forward to visit some day. 👍🏻✌🏻

[@beaumitchell]

The quality of this video production is incredible. I definitely want to visit your hometown now!

[@aungmyintoo4635]

You come from a great country, great city, modern new country, internet savvy with a mind and attitude of great quality of scandinavian people.

[@EM2000SS]

This guy makes any Lithuanian damn be proud of own heritage .. Bless you in your life!!!👋🤘👋

[@user-mh2uj7ns6h]

"Vilnius" is not their heritage though. Lithuanians were transported there by Stalin (a criminal) and stole Polish properties. The whole city used to be Polish.

[@mindaugasz.1102]

I think Europe isnt just London, Paris or Roma. Soon or later Vilnius become one of popular cities. This city has very deep history which can to show to the world when Lithuania has been the strongest, the biggeast Europeon country in the medievel age. Without history, the oldtown Vilnius is very beautiful, green city. I like when Nėris river is crossing two different times: the past - the oldtown and the future - new buildings.

[@annakryowicz5924]

Vilnius to miasto magia, kto był w Wilnie chce tu wracać. .Kocham Wilno i chętnie wracam co roku...Przepiękne miasto ..

@chomad,I am your big fan!!! May you get a chance to collaborate with Jacob one day!!! 💥🤗

[@zizi_strizi001]

Wow, so beautiful ❤️ Discovered your city on google earth (I think most Austrians don't know it - just by learning European capitals) It's such a colorful city, I would love to spend a few weeks there (also for geocaching🙂)

[@Nogoodnameleft1122]

Brings me back to my visit to this city last year. Felt it wasn’t long enough. Hope to go back

[@moreblueye]

I have been to Vilnius and I would highly recommend it. If you go there you need to see the University and take the tour under the Cathedral.

[@rosemarieriley5133]

Thank you very much for showing me Lithuania. As a newly discovered Lithuanian (from ancestral heritage), I'm really excited to discover how wonderful the "old" country really is and I can't wait to visit!!

[@saulgoodman5451]

If you haven't visited it yet, I recommend spending 8 days here: 3 in Vilnius, 0.5 in Trakai, 2.5 in Kaunas and 1-2 in Klaipėda

[@rszarka]
