Saturday evening. Old town Vilnius. Loud crowds and noisy cobblestone streets. Bars and restaurants fighting for your attention. But you need a break. Then you look left and notice an empty green field with a lonely log. You step on the log and there you see it – the most unpretentious old building nobody cares about. A lonely building that doesn’t suffer from any attention. Then some refreshing wind shows up and there we go…

All you need to explore the bustling capitals of Lithuania, Latvia and Riga is a city map you can get for free and to get dressed appropriately. There is no bad weather only bad clothing. And the weather can be surprisingly unpredictable which will be in your favor as the end of May feels like summer.
The scent of an old building
Towns of hundreds of years. Walls that have seen shining glory and war dust. Abandoned or alone on purpose. Never miss a chance to talk to an old building, to scent its aroma (or stink) and to lean on to its falling render.



Stare into nothingness
Dreamy looks in the city. Seaside relax. Countryside to offer both. This fashion never gets old.

Follow the cobblestone all the way to the wilderness
Follow the narrowest cobblestone street or the most hidden wooden track to reveal hidden jewels and unexpected scenery. Grey and brick mix with green and sand to deliver the ultimate city/countryside experience.
