Right , Lithuanian girls are beautiful , some are both intelligent and pretty.
Best luck with your GF.
Who told you that Lithuania is a cheap country? Actually , it's very expensive not only for us here, but for foreigners from West Europe as well. First, petrol is the most expensive in the whole Europe, as well as diesel or gas. Naturally , bills forcentral heating for a long winter season, which lasts for half a year come huge. As they most use gas for heating and less of biological fuel. You car should be economic , otherwise you will soon be short of money. But it certainly depends on your income. Naturally, groceries - Maxima is quite a good shopping centre to buy them if you and your gf are willing to make meals at home, which is recommendd. There is a wide variety of diary products, meat, greens there, also bread, Lithuanian brown bread is awesome. Good quality Lithuanian groceries are quite expensive , you will see it yourself.
Renting an apartment in the capital is costly, but I hope your GF has got a living place.
Lithuania, on the other hand, is not a third world country, but its economy is stuck , young people emmigrate, as well as I am jobless and looking for a job abroad. Any developed country.
Clothes? Hmmmm... never believe those butiques sell brand things, they are fake, nobody here affords to open a truly brand shops of word famous brands.
Lithuanians , especially the young speak English, so you won't have any problems with them, but elder people do not speak English, just some. Lithuanian is one of the oldest languages in the world and one of the most difficult to learn. No, you will never acquire it unless you put your all efforts and move to Lithuania forever and use it from early morning till you close your eyes for good night.. lol..Be cautious everywhere you go or do, do not walk alone on the streets at night - you can be robbed , etc...rely on yourself more , do not trust strangers very much, I read stories , sad ones... beware Roel.
I do not know which surrounding you appear in here, but too much alkochol is used here by the young and the elder ones.
I may be late with my reply but the notification has just arrived.
Any time, Roel.
Best luck.
