Now it was time to go back to the apartment, while walking through the other part of Kaunas, after the last picture I decided to use an eletrical scooter again to get back to the apartment. (Maybe taking a day pass in Vilnius to travel around)
Nu was het weer tijd om naar het apartement te gaan, dit deed ik via de andere kant van de stad. Na die laatste foto besloot ik maar om weer een elektrische scooter te pakken om naar het apartement te gaan (in Vilnius misschien maar een dagabbonement nemen)Read more

I woke up early and after having a coffee, I wanted to go to the other side of the Nemuna river because it looked more mountainous and I had enough time anyway. On my way, on the bridge, I saw a funicular that was build in the 1930s and when I was up the mountain, you could see the entire city of Kaunas.
I werd vroeg wakker en nadat ik een koffie gehaald had, besloot ik om naar de andere kant van de Nemuna rivier te gaan omdat het er bergachtig uitzag en omdat ik toch genoeg tijd had. Toen ik de brug opliep zag ik een oude kabelbaan van de jaren 1930 en toen ik boven aankwam kon je de gehele stad van Kaunas zienRead more

Left the appartment around 11:40 and found some dutch name on the main street, after walking for 20 min, I arrived at the train station whrre it was a bit of a labyrinth to get to the right platform. Also found some dutch people walking even tho they spoke english back to me when I said something haha.
Heb het appartement verlaten rond 11:40 en ik vond een Nederlandse naam om de straat. Na 20 minuten gewandeld te hebben, kwam ik op het treinstation aan waar het een klein doolhof was om op het juiste perron te komen. Ik hoorde ook mensej Nederlands praten maar ze zeiden iets in engels terug toen ik iets zei.Read more

I saw online that there was a bike rental service in the city so I decided to rent one to just relax while biking and to get everywhere faster. It is sometimes difficult to find a place to place the bike tho.
Ik zag online dat er een fietsverhuurbedrijf was, dus ik besloot om een fiets voor een dag te huren om gewoon ff relaxed te fietsen en om overal sneller te kunnen zijn, t is alleem soms moeilijk om een plekje te vinden om neer te zettenRead more

Ik zag onderweg naar Vilnius dat de fietsverhuurplaats een route heeft waarvoor je of een guide kan vragen of het gewoon zelf te doen. Ik wou dit zelf doen en heb dat vandaag dan ook gedaanRead more

House of Histories: conspiracies
May 7, 2024 in Lithuania ⋅ ⛅ 11 °C
This is one of the many national museums in Vilnius and this one was about history as the name suggest, however I thought it would go more in history like: how was Lithuania founded? How was there time in the USSR? But first floor was all about conspiracy theories nowadays and in the previous centuries and 2nd floor was about the migration of people and lithuanians. The following subjects are presented:
Dit is een van de vele nationale musea in Vilnius en dit ging over de geschiedenis zoals de naam al zegt. Hoewel ik eigenlijk andere onderwerpen verwacht had zoals: hoe is Litouwen ontstaan? Hoe was hun tijd in de SU? Maar de begane grond ging over conspiracy theorien en de 1ste verdieping ging over migratie van (Litouwse )mensen. Maar de volgende onderwerpen kwamen aan bod:
Conspiracie theories:
1. Witchcraft/heksen
2. Masonic conspiracy
3. Jewish / Joodse conspiractie
4. Communist infiltrators in US
5. Capitalist infiltrators in USSR
6. JFK
7. Moonlanding / maanlanding
8. Colorado beetles / toren
9. 9/11
10. Covid
11. 5g & chemtrailsRead more
