Lithuania, it's like the shy kid at school who's secretly equipped with spellbinding charm, riveting tales, and surprising talent. It's like the artful hipster cafe of Eastern Europe that lures you in with forests that could inspire fairy tales, coastal jewelry like the Curonian Spit, and endearing, Old Town architecture. Yet it isn't just looks that Lithuania trades in – oh no! Remember its role in overthrowing the USSR, and you'll find history packing a punch more potent than a shot of its beloved Mead.
