Thomas Mann's Summer house Nida, Lithuania
About Me
- Name: Ineta
- Location: Vilnius, Vilnius, Lithuania
Let me begin by saying that I am from Lithuania, a country that speaks Europe’s oldest language, even older than Latin or Homeric Greek. It’s in a linguistic group of its own (Baltic), and every European language has some Lithuanian words in it – no wonder Esperanto was invented here. And, oh yes, we do play a mean game of basketball! For me, being born a Lithuanian is all about music in the country that calls itself “Dainava” – Land of Song.
