Yesterday Anna and I went to the Christmas market and saw real reindeer from Finland. The funny thing was that you could also buy reindeer sausages just 20 metres away.

I couldn't go back to Lithuania for the holidays after last semester because my exams were scattered through the whole holiday period. It won't happen this time as I bought my tickets yesterday. I have 9 exams from 14th July to 17th September (yes, it's more than two months for just 9 exams and I really don't like it) and on 18th September I'm flying with Lufthansa to Vilnius and will stay there until 1st October.
I was looking for tickets with Airbaltic (one of the few airlines I fly to Lithuania with) and noticed that they're showing Leipzig in the list of airports, but they don't have any connections to Vilnius. But then I thought I might look for what other airlines have to offer and found a Lufthansa flight (via Frankfurt) for just 180€ which is way cheaper than Airbaltic which would cost me at least 240€ plus about 60€ for the train tickets to Berlin and it's also quicker as the Leipzig/Halle airport is just 10 minutes away from Halle's main railway station.
I don't think I could find anything cheaper than that and also it's Lufthansa - I could never imagine flying with Lufthansa and paying for it myself and now it's probably even cheaper than going by train!

On this day seven years ago I started my Lithuanian blog. I think it's quite a good day to start a new English blog. I'm Tomas Markauskas and I'm a Lithuanian currently studying computer science in Halle, Germany. I'm also interested in web development, the web itself, music, photography and many more things so you can expect to find all sorts of posts here in the future.
