Hello, Labas, Sveiki 👋
We're Elise & Alex and we live in the beautiful city of Vilnius, Lithuania. We moved here in February 2020 to travel Europe for a year... We weren't able to travel much, but we fell in love with Vilnius and we decided to stay here! We post weekly vlogs about our life in Lithuania.
I LOVE that they sing to the sunset. Oh my heart. That is so wonderful and cute
You made my eyes fill up seeing Lithuanians in their costumes and singing those ancient harmonies. Summer solstice is probably the most Lithuanian of all festivals.
As an American-born Lithuanian, I have attended small gatherings of Jonines, but I get really excited when I see how they do it in Kernave!
Thanks for posting this.

Thanks for posting! I miss celebrating Joninės in Lithuania. It’s a wonderful authentic cultural experience!!! I’ve not ventured to Lithuania from North America in recent years. Next year!
Thanks a lot for sharing, so interesting to see and hear! 😍😍🙌🙌
It's so weird seeing you guys at the place I spend so much of my time in! On 9-11 of July, there will be another great event in Kernavė, "Gyvosios archeologijos dienos Kernavėje". You will be transported back in time to the Viking age, enjoy authentic food and drink of the time, listen to some traditional Baltic music and maybe even buy yourselves some authentic reproductions of 8th-12th century things that the craftsmen make. PLEASE come to the event if you can, you will not regret it!
Jūs nuostabūs. Šaunuoliai abu. Kaip faina stebėti jus
Su šventėm jus mielieji 💞💕💖
My heart is smiling. Very good representatives of Lithuania .Very good video to understand Jonines in Kernave. I was there too, but didnt see you:) Bought neclace with Mercy of Jesus and Zuzu Honey from Sirvintos :))) jummy
It's rainy or stormy almost every year on the day of Jonines, so it's funny. And did you know that we are looking for the blossom of the fern. It's stupid, but it is a tradition to look for it at the night of Jonines.
Not stupid, just a great way for the young folk to go deep into the forrest together and not be judged by society for what’s going to happen in there :D. It is believed that if you find the blossom, you are would get the world’s visdom, I’d say it’s a great metaphor for what happens after you spend some time in the forrest alone with your “crush” :)
Happy State Day for yesterday, any festivals or videos, re state day?
Kernave,medieval capital of Lithuania..Special place,so much history.
Aww. shame all bofires and sculptures didn't get lit. The storm ruined everything.. Ok, maybe next year :)
It's just Perkūnas' way of showing affection.
Amazing. Are you going to visit Klaipeda or Nida this summer?
Turnout was very low this year. No doubt because of the 'rona and the heatwave and ofc the rainstorm. Hopefully it's better next year.
Im starting to like your montage. Keep it up!
I love how they are trying to keep the culture alive.
Maybe Vilnius needs a bar where people dress like this to serve beer 🍺 and get drunk singing traditional songs.
"Underground", less known places like that already exist all around the country. It's mostly places where pagans gather.
There is normally Kilkim Žaibu pagan/metal festival, allways around the solstice, my big dream to go there. They really make the effort to keep the old costumes alive😁

Awesome footage! I think I saw some pagan representation (more plain linen clothing compared to the folk costumes).
Group singing in harmony is always enjoyable. The temperature should have dropped by the evening and after the rain. Maybe you were able to sleep easier.
"Soup, cepelinai, kibinai: the three main food groups" that's definitely an interesting observation. But is it true? Yes, all other food exist for decorative purposes (source: trust me, fam I'm an Lithuanian)
for some reason there's always rain on St.Jone's day
Lithuanians are the last european pagans
not the last ones, there also were Sami people in the north of Finland. But they didn't experienced Crusades as Baltic tribes had.
@@kavolis Holidays nationally more than half remained pagan, WAU
why do they lay down on the blanket while the others sing to them?
🌞🌞🌞
People who watched midsommar: "I'm not sitting here until things get crazy."
well, these days it's trendy to demonize everything that's related to European traditional culture. Well... you know, first of all - all people are white and that's already a bad thing. There must be some conspiracy of white supremacists and maybe they are killing foreigners. LOL
@@kavolis lol, no it's not, if anything midsommar made it more popular. Not sure why you needed a dog whisle in there too with whole "it's all white people and that's a bad thing", literally no one is saying that and you are not a victim so stop playing one.
@@Koooles LOL, create a strawman from someone else.
@@kavolis Self awareness much? Your entire comment is one big strawman. This is just a funny comment referencing movie and you are crying how pagan traditions are demonized and white people are attacked.
@@Koooles I am crying? :) OK, bye.
Interesting fact: Jonines was made into Public Holiday like 10-15 years ago by referendum, and won in Landslide. Who doesn't want free day off? Even without traditions, people get drunk anyway, since it's a longest day of the year, and having to work next day kind of was a safety risk with all drunk drivers and sober people at work
No entiendo nada en jodido ingles,pero es interesante.
4:59 :D
those two never came back, were sacrificed for sun god :)
We had no sun of god, we had Thunder God.
