Living here for a couple of years already. Cost of living information is very accurate, even surprised me :D But I can't agree with couple Cons. As mentioned in the older review, pretty much everyone speaks english, only some older folks (40+) doesn't. It's true that LGBT community isn't very popular, but I would not say that it's hostile. Lithuanians indeed are a bit closed in, but that's only till the first drink, then everyone becomes besties. If you struggle with making friends visit "Dzem Pub" bar, it's very popular between foreigners and students, after a couple drinks people will come up to get to know you, don't be too shy to just ask groups if you can join them!

As mentioned in the older review, pretty much everyone speaks english, only some older folks (40+) doesn't.It's true that LGBT community isn't very popular, but I would not say that it's hostile. Lithuanians indeed are a bit closed in, but that's only till the first drink, then everyone becomes besties. If you struggle with making friends visit "Dzem Pub" bar, it's very popular between foreigners and students, after a couple drinks people will come up to get to know you, don't be too shy to just ask groups if you can join them!

I am not sure when this was done but I have moved to Kaunas this September looking for a quiet place to work.Everyone speaks english and the average of the costs I spent per month including the rent for the flat is 500 - 600 euros.
