He really put in the effort to learn about the history and culture of the country. Kudos to him
I wonder is it as noticeable to the outsiders how much Lithuania has changed in the short amount of time we have been free from the soviets, like the 1990s to 2020s all we have now as a free country is 30 years, but i feel like we made great strides to become a nice country to live in.
Lithuanian language is extremely heard to learn in general for an English speaker but speak in this smoothly it’s impossible. He nailed I’m so impressed!
Nice Lithuanian language skills bro :) PEACE 4 ALL
In lithuania there are no tornados. Sometimes there is just realy strong wind
Wow, I was really surprised when he started speaking Lithuanian, I understood literally everything. Nice!
It’s so interesting to hear a foreigner’s take on how we just live our life hehe Really glad you actually took the time to learn a bit of the language as well! Really impressive :>
Wow, I visited several years ago and found the language impossible!
Nice work, sir. I also used a little Russian, which wasn't advisable as I found out...(but some Russians were impressed)
A man in the Vilnius market comically told me they "spoke English when drunk because Lithuanian was too hard."
Hope to visit again.
I’m Lithuanian! pure bred ha. thanks for taking the time to make this video.
I miss cepelinai so much!
been in US half of my life now
gira can be alcoholic if home made
This person is brilliant. I wish I could absorb and express the culture as concise yet personal like this. :thunbsUp:
I have Lithuanian blood but I was born in America, my family doesn’t even know the language but I really want to go back, and possibly even move to Lithuania to reconnect with my roots. I just need to learn the language lol
This boy has a lovely relaxing voice and he's so incredibly beautiful
As a lithuanian the foods made me remember how delish everything is
What a calming voice! I really enjoyed this video and the way the guest spoke about Lithuania. Now I'm wondering if I should move there myself, haha.
The Lithuanian Duke married the Polish Princess... There is a statue in Central Park NYC of the Duke!
as an estonian i learned a lot of cool things about lithuania in this vid :D
Lithuania is a very safe place to live, no huricanes, no vocanos, no earthquakes. And minimal crime
Alaskan here, very similar weather, long darkness in winter, endless daylight in summertime, and yes snow fog is real, always strange to meet people who don't know about it. It also is 95f in summer and -65f in winter.
Our food is different tho, Caribou, Moose, Yak, Bear, Salmon, Cod, Halibut, King Crab, Clams, Mussels, Oysters, Scallop, Shrimp, and LOTS of blueberries and raspberries, oh and your typical veggies like radish, bell pepper, onion, tomato, potato ect. So we are different in that regard. We eat a lot of eggs too, and coffee is basically a religion here.
I wish we had public transportation like that here, though many Alaskan cities have excellent public transportation, but since our state is the size of Western Europe and stretches all the way from the artic circle, to just north of Vancouver Canada, then stretches to Japan, and also over half our towns and villages do not have roads or any way to access them other than airplane, ATV, or snow machine, it just isn't practical. You're fortunate if Walmart is under 3 hours away lol. It is hard to describe just how huge this state is, and yet we have 1/3 the population of Lithuania.
Anywho the reason for my comment is I have several very dear Lithuanian friends, and I agree their food is delicious and their country is incredibly beautiful, I love Lithuania, however all the Lithuanians I know greatly dislike the Soviet Union and communist Russia or Russia in general....so I was surprised to hear you talk with Lithuanians who have fondness of communism. In fact the Lithuanians I'm very close friends with also greatly dislike NATO for the simple fact that the Soviet Union invaded and conquered Lithuania in 1940 and the Allies did absolutely nothing about it, but they appreciate the defense it offers against Russia. Hence why they have not gone to the extreme far left culturally like the rest of western Europe has. Now admittedly my Lithuanian friends are younger and in their twenties so perhaps it's a generation thing? Just curious.
Thank you so much for your video! Much love to Lithuania from Alaska!
😍 its amazing how well you spoke Lithuanian. And its amazing how much you have learned about our country 😱🥰
Good job! well done! As a Lithuanian - I am very impressed with your knowledge and skills! My English husband loves it there too, and also the food. I am hoping to move back and live happily once again!
Its facinating that American knows Lithuanian history
Lithuania is a tiny hidden gem, and I love it here (:
I found this video by accident and I’m so impressed by the fact how fluent is his Lithuanian and how much facts did he learn about Lithuania! I’m even more proud to be Lithuanian right now! Best wishes from Lithuania!
Almost no accent. That is super impressive.
It rains much less than in Ireland and the UK.
Thank you for your video. There are idioms in Lithuanian or sayings. My mother told me alot. I.e. I tripped on a sidewalk crack and she asked "Is a musician buried there?" I appeared to start to dance. (No one from the present generation knows about them.)
Yes, Latin and Lithuanian share much in grammar. All the various cases (linksmai) and genders of words are common.
he speaks better in lithuanian than my cousin and my cousin was born in lithuania and is 16
another interesting video! I'll check more about this country I never paid too much attention! great to see a young person so dedicated to understand a lesser known country, culture and language. Thank you.
Respect from Lithuania!
Great video. I found it very interesting to watch even though I live here and nice Lithuanian language skills bro!
Man, very accurate story, I am proud of you.
P.S. I am lithuanian
Your Lithuanian is soo great!
I am so pro6nd and thankful that he took time to learn our language. Good job!

Nice Bro I am from Lithuania I give a big Like Keep it going bro 😍
Kudos for the effort, love from Lithuania! 🇱🇹❤️
He is so sweet! Bless him!!!
Good video :) Puikiai kalbi :) Greetings from Lithuania!
You just made my day....
Oh we have many idioms and use it a lot :) other than that is true :)
Both maternal grandparents from Lithuania. Mom could speak the language. My grandfather, born in 1887 ( under Russian Empire) spoke Russian, Lithuanian, Polish and some German. I don't know how Lithuanian language ( and the Catholic church) survived Russification before WW1.
Pretty much the same here, my grandparents on my mother's side emigrated from LT to the US in 1918. My mother was about 3-years old at the time. My grandparent on my mother's side spoke no English, so I did not really learn any Lithuanian from them. It is quite hard to imagine all that these wonderful people in LT as well as Latvia and Estonia have lived through and how they managed to survive in the way that they have. Quite inspirational in my opinion. Someone once referred to them as the little guy that wouldn't quit. I believe that to be very true.
You have to eat meat-jello homemade! 😁 šaltiena! Yum!
The lithuanian part was a surprise!
Amazing! Speechless.
the gira drink is the lithunian equivalent of root beer
Your lithuanian is amazing. I hope you are well !
Wow I love his voice, very calming.
Cool video!! Thanks for all nice words you've said :)
Is it just me or this guy really looks like William James Sidis? also nice..... well done on the video :D
That's a pretty accurate and detailed description of Lithuania. Well done and thank you. I could not point out almost anything I would disagree with. Perhaps except the public transport :D While it may look good in the context of comparable American cities, especially other than NYC or Chicago, it is a bit shit compared to most other European nations. Even compared to Poland and Belarus let alone Germany or Netherlands.
I lost my Lithuanian language when I moved to Ireland and it’s been pretty hard when I come back home because I can’t really speak to mano Mochiute
Are you willing/trying to re-learn it?
I’d love to try it
My birthplace!!
Hey, are you have Lithuanian roots? You're looks very Lithuanian.
Give you strong 9 in Lithuanian language
You can find rye bread in russian shops in US. 😁

Lithuania is really beatiful, also Lithuanian language is the oldest in the world. Lithuania is richest fresh water in the world and fastest internet in the world. I love my country!
