How Lithuanians, Latvians, and Estonians Make Fun Of Each Other
So let’s change things up and switch to a much lighter topic for todays video: regional jokes.
The idea came to me when I remembered a Lithuanian friend telling me that there’s an ongoing joke about Estonians being slow. I thought I would run with this idea and see what jokes Lithuanians had for their Baltic neighbours and what our neighbours had to say about Lithuania.

6 Things NOT To Do in Latvia!
Latvia is a small country with a population of less than two million. While people are generally relaxed and tranquil there are some things which will offend. Here are 6 Things Not To Do in Latvia!
1. Don’t mention the Russians!
Latvia has a complex relationship with Russia. Many Latvians feel the Russians don’t accept them as their own independent country and many Russians living there don,t feel accepted as Latvians. Neither like an ignorant tourist voicing their opinion about it!
2. Don’t ignore their language!
The Latvian language was suppressed during the Russian occupation so try to learn some simple words.
Sveiki (hello)
Ardievas (goodbye)
Paldies (thanks).
They know they’re never going to be a global language but they really appreciate you trying.
3. Don’t avoid the local dishes!
Latvians are proud of their culture and cuisine. Try the local dishes and beverages and give your opinion, especially if you like them. From fried garlic bread to fresh fruit jams, Latvia has a varied cuisine with excellent domestic beers.
4. Don’t be aggressive (unless you’re driving!)
Latvians generally have a calm and “each to his own” lookout on life so don’t be brash or too bold, unless you’re behind the wheel, then it really is each to his own!
5. Don’t turn up empty-handed!
If you get invited to someone’s house always bring an odd number of flowers, an even number is associated with death, some food or beverages
and remember to take your shoes off just inside the door.
6. Don’t disrespect nature!
Half of Latvia is still virgin forest. Most Latvians are nature lovers and still follow many pagan traditions. They will show you how to make crowns from flowers and tea from the local herbs. Join in respectfully and they will appreciate it.

Hunt for Europe's least spoken language
The far northern coast of Latvia is home to a place called Livonia, and once upon a time to a bunch of people called Livonians. The Livonian language was related to Estonian rather than Latvian and shaped by their access to the sea. Some articles state that the number of speakers remaining might be less than 20. Some state that it's already extinct. Let's head to Livonia and have a look for ourselves!
