Yesterday Tania, Fatou and me took the bus to Copenhagen. We slept in the apartment of other EVS Volunteers and took our flight to Lithuania this morning. We flew from CPH to Kaunas.
Kaunas is the secomd biggest city in Lithuania with around 305.000 inhabitants. The hostel we were sleeping in is located in the middle of a 2,5 km long pedestrian street in the the city centre. Today we're going to spend the evening visiting a Jazz festival which is taking place here during this weekend. But before we're going to have dinner at a traditional Lithuanian restaurant.
Saturday:
Today we had breakfast in a bakery. Coming from Denmark you feel like you want to buy the whole store. Everything is soooo cheap!! You can drink as much coffee as you want - without counting your money.
During the afternoon we have been walking around Kaunas to see more of the city. We visited churches and other old buildings, went onto a hill from where you have a great view over the whole city and walked through a park along a river. Kaunas is a very nice city and we have been very lucky with the weather today. In contrast to Denmark there is almost no wind going here so you can actually feel the heat as soon as the sun is shining. We're really enjoying our time here. Funnily, we met other EVS Volunteers from Denmark who are in Lithuania on holidays as well. We will meet up with them this evening.
