What to do and what not to do

FB request:This post is concerning those small stupid things that You must not forget... and what is better to forget.

Well, there's an emotional issue on this, some gifts from friends (handmade counts double) the recipe from your mom to cook that thing you love...

by from that, some things you shouldn’t forget:

Some photos ID size, non 3 or 4 as may be required for many things. And if you're planning to visit Rusia, they need NO-bright photos :S for the Visa. Stupid, but true.

-Still without needing passport do get to Lithuania, you'd better take it as it is applied for to get visas and get into some south-eastern countries. I guess nobody would go without passport... but only in case...

Obviously, don’t forget the laptop, as we aren’t no longer full person without it. Once flying with good company, it is received in the bag, in addition to hand luggage. Once the flight is with Ryanair, you'll be asked for to put it into the hand luggage and still no reach 10kg (they nothing else check weight in some airports)

I may forget some stuff... but here are some things youdn’t better remember:

(This list was for spanish usual stuff)

Forget EVERYTHING you think it's true :D I mean, you won't find many things you have in spanish supermarkets, party places...

  • -Loaf of bread? No
  • -Boiled ham? No exactly
  • -Showing ID when buying with credit card? No
  • -Tips? Yes (waiters/waitresses earn their life with that, habitually students)
  • -Fried tomato sauce? No, any kind but fried
  • -Cañas(half pint)? No way, smallest 0'5L (Caña price: nearly 1'5-2 €)
  • -Copas(spanish way for mixed drinks? No, cocktails (asking for a bloody mary may seem cool.... it is not)
  • -Rum? Bacardi
  • -Gin? Only a little

Despite all this, there is bread (even some good), other hams non spanish usual way, better take new credit cards with chip and PIN code, tips... not easy for spanish but in the end you accustom, or they will think you're an asshole all erasmus long. Tomato sauce is cooked in a pan, about size and price of beer i guess there's no problem, and about drinks... accustom to beer, vodka or tequila shots.

You can go to Poland to buy other brands and kinds of alcohol (anything else)

What if you don't like beer or Vodka?

Where the hell did you think you were going when applying for Lithuania? :D
