Website

The official website is split into 5 main sections:

1. LEARN: A linguistic section with written and audio materials in 5 languages (English, Lithuanian, Latvian, Danish and Swedish).
2. EXPLORE: a section providing basic information about 4 countries, their cultures and languages (Lithuania, Latvia, Denmark and Sweden).
3. SHARE: a section where the written and audio materials can be downloaded. Learners may also upload their knowledge and experience in language learning and traveling within this section.
4. CONSULT: a linguistic section where any learner can ask a general question about language learning or a specific language (Lithuanian, Latvian, Danish or Swedish) and get a professional answer from a linguist. Answers then are posted for the general public.
5. CONTINUE STUDIES: a section providing useful links for those who decide to continue self-studying Lithuanian, Latvian, Danish or Swedish, or those wishing to find more information about traveling.
