Lithuania is also very affordable
Quite some lithuanians would disagree with you. I live with my mother. So we menage well enough. Still wooden briquettes prices are really starting to bite the wallet.
It is cool that more people from Hive are discovering my country. I don't remember ever traveling by train. But from your photos it looks comfortable enough. I would still prefer traveling by some kind of ship(maybe this is mostly nostalgia speaking. Because our family traveled by ship a few times when I was still a child.) But train looks quite fun as well.
