Our first stop on the Baltic LEAP program was in Vilnius, Lithuania. The southernmost of the Baltic countries, Vilnius was a fantastic introductory site for the program with many unique restaurants, historical monuments like Gediminas’s Tower (pictured above), and beautiful nature.

Our exploration of Vilnius, Lithuania, during the program, left an indelible impression. The city’s distinctive restaurants showcased local flavors, complementing historical gems in the old town (pictured below). Amidst this charm, the city’s natural beauty emerged as a serene backdrop, setting an inspiring tone for the program’s outset.

From the three crosses to the endless number of churches. Our experience was also enriched by experiencing the annual NATO summit. We got to witness world leaders, including President Joe Biden, having one of the world’s most important meetups after the local geopolitical situation.
