some people seem very cold to foreigners and are very reluctant to speak with them. so, it is a bit difficult to talk to locals.
a bit of racism
not accepted in pubs just for being a foreigner.
they usually dislike foreigners. i understand the social context in which they have lived, but they are too rude. when i once went to a restaurant, i was rejected because i did not speak lithuanian. and like this experience, i have had many more.
mostly because people can sometimes be rude by saying that they don't speak english.
people who work with people, for example in stores and restaurants, are not as polite as in other countries. i had an experience with rude staff, so it's like they don't make an effort to get a tip. i have a few friends who are lithuanians, and i get along well with them!
sometimes people seemed to be very unfriendly, but i think it was just because they felt uncomfortable with the language difficulties.
