1. Number one has to be to learn Lithuanian, even if just 1000 words. (The list is published by the Lithuanian Language Institute.) Not only will it help to make your stay more interesting, but it will also sharply increase your chances of finding a job.

2. Learn how to walk on ice. There used to be plenty of city workers to spead sand on ice, but now many jobs have been replaced by machinery. Basically, take small steps to keep your weight over them, don't pick up your feet to help keep from pushing off, walk on the grass where possible, and avoid slick surfaces like manhole covers.

No. 3. Always call for a taxi on your telephone (mobile or fixed line) even if you are standing next to a taxi. The rates are usually half the price and if you just climb into a taxi, you are more likely to be cheated, esp. if you do not speak Lithuanian.

Living in Vilnius, I have noticed that cabs now have their per kilometer rates on their windows.
