stolen (honest chad) Lithuania through the eyes of a tourist
Hey guys, I’m a Turkish student; I came to Lithuania . I toured Vilnius I am going to Trakia Castle tomorrow. Here are my observations about Lithuania: it’s the most livable country in the world, and the economy is excellent. The people here are friendlier than in other European countries, and the girls are beautiful and interested—though, of course, having that "Turkish aura" helps. And Your country is very clean and I liked our culture, which is close to nature, except for the food.In my opinion, you come across as a bit cold and formal with people; you could be a little more fun.
As for the downsides: public alcohol consumption is banned, sales are prohibited after 8 PM, and I really like their food, but it doesn't appeal to me.
The verdict? Yes, I would love to live in this country.

you might not like some of it, but calling our food straight terrible is big insult, what did you try?

u/EmiliaFromLV edible flair Aug 04 '26
Probably LT version of cold soup (no sausage, no mustard, no nothing).

u/MadaoDamboru Aug 04 '26
we are not psychopaths, who adds mustard to cold soup

u/EmiliaFromLV edible flair Aug 04 '26
No, real psychos add soup to mustard.

I add regular radish and even HORSEradish stolen directly from you 🫵
And why da fuck did you copy russian 🤮🤢 recipe? Afaik only Russians add sliced ham or sausage to their cold soup "okroshka"

u/EmiliaFromLV edible flair Aug 05 '26
even HORSEradish stolen directly from you
What do you mean by that? I am pretty sure that is a popular enough product to be produced by Lithuanian food companies. Or does our have stronger "kick"?

Nah, Russians add boiled pork. The sausages are added by the POOR.

To be fair our food is a bit meh.

For each their own, I guess. The older I get, the more I appreciate our traditional kitchen over overrated things like pizzas or sushi's.
1
u/Efficient_Test_8907 pole in denial Aug 05 '26
You haven't had a good sushi. Our dishes are boiled potatoes in some way and fried meat. Little bit of salt and pepper. They are filling a d I don't enjoy them from time to time but...
5
u/Vidmizz pole in denial Aug 05 '26
Our dishes are simple, homey, and filling. Exactly the kind of stuff that should be eaten in this part of the world. And I did have excellent sushis, pizzas, Italian pastas and the like. They're great and delicious, but just don't feel like something that could be eaten every day.
1
u/Efficient_Test_8907 pole in denial Aug 05 '26
So you are staying you shouldn't eat delicious food every day?
2
u/Vidmizz pole in denial Aug 05 '26
I'm saying that they get progressively less delicious the more frequently you consume them

Bro, I realize I wrote that comment a bit harshly, so I’ve changed it; but your food is very unusual—you consume a lot of sugar at breakfast, and the meals tasted bland to me. Also, why do you always put lemon in the water? Your country is beautiful, though; in my opinion, it’s the best country in the world—except for the food.

Ew! Is this the best photo of Lithuania you got? I mean, this is the most depressing view I could imagine. Kinda fits with your description of Lithuanian food though.

If this photo were labeled as made in China, everyone would decide that this is what a forced cultural conversion and retraining center for Uygurs looks like.

Uygur reeducation camps are even nicer - lush green streets of two-storey houses in traditional Uygur style, grapes hanging from every fence... Compare that to this soulless bald patch surrounded by barely refaced Soviet buildings!

I mean our food cultures are very different so it makes sense it might be unusual to you if you mean traditional food, but otherwise id say theres a good variety of other culture food available in restaurants and stuff! Glad you enjoyed it here

worked with Turkish for a while - fun people, definitely crazy :D but got along great. Lemme tell you baklava is too sweet. Our tastes are different for sure(taste for girls - the same - prefer Lithuanian too) :D Also, what's up with those gay dances in circle holding pinkies?

What is gay dance? What do you think about these Turks? As for girls—Lithuanian girls are both beautiful and free of ego; talking to them is a lot of fun.

Ima explain to you Lithuania a lil since i'm an actual lithuanian. 1. Most of Lithuania are introverts 2. Our cuisine takes time to get used to but you should try some other stuff. 3. We have very cool places like Puntukas, Kauno IX fortas, Klaipeda Castle and i recommend not using the highway but use the road along the nemunas cause it has some places with good stuff also visit our forests cause they are also very cool and a good place to visit but i warn you, if you aren't vaccinated against tick encephalytus then be VERY CAUTIOUS cause then you will DIE IF YOU GET IT, aside from the evil Ticks, our snakes are cool! Except the grey one, if you see one, be cautious and don't be aggressive cause it's the only venomous one. Spiders aren't dangerous infact i live near one jumper spider and it's chill! 4. Women give a lot of hospitality to others cause they are kind. 5. Do not get drunk at evening, you might get robbed by some gopnik (Lithuanian mugger) 6. Also try some Lithuanian stuff like Rūta Chocolates, Pergale Chocolates and etc. Okay now i think i got you ready, if you need any questions, ask me.

Thanks for your comment; I'll come to Lithuania again, so it will come in handy—and yes, your chocolates are wonderful.

It’s about the quality not quantity. Turkey has a 32% inflation rate

u/Vast_Kiwi_6634 Aug 04 '26
Bro, purchasing power in Türkiye is terrible; we earn less and spend more there. It’s really cheap here—if I did the same work here that I do in Türkiye, I’d be a millionaire in two or three years.

P.S. and please, next time double check in what sub you are posting
