      HELLOOOOOOO, much I’m trying to develop a blog newspaper in which the articles are written by blogger WordPress (or to limit if you do not have time can I you myself when an article by your blog and they to your blog…).
      The blog newspaper was born with the intention to give greater visibility to your blog and the people who search the Web to find articles of greater quality in a single place (having regard to the thousands of blog born every day…). If you go exchange links with blog newspaper contact me as well. I thank you advance and to http://www.giornale.fm soon

      Thank you:)

      I wish you would have a little advertisement to embed on personal sites such as facebook or myspace. Also “Tell your friends” button would be useful…So more people would visit:)

    • laimikis (author) sako (said):

      never thought of ‘tell your friend’ button,
      i hope there will be opportunities to put it to the site:)

      i’m in love with your website! just discovered it today and i’ve subscribed to it. keep on blogging!

      Brill website! Love the layout and the links.The photo’s are large and clear and combined with the narrative help depict a cool and lively street culture in Vilnius; with so much to see! 10/10:)

      i love your website, too! i also just discovered it today. i’m doing a street style blog too – just started – and that’s exactly how i feel, each time i find someone to shoot it’s truly a ‘lucky catch’. i’m more fascinated with the people’s stories and lives than just where they bought their clothes.

      also… i think my grandmother, who my mother loved so much, and who died right when i was born, was born in or near vilnius. that would be amazing. i’ve just emailed my mom in florida to ask her.

      greetings from london! i’m adding your link – please add mine too if you like it.

      xoxo jc

      thanks, Jill! :)
      sometimes it’s a pity, a blog format
      is not that suitable for posting whole stories/interviews.

      if you decide to come to visit places
      your grandmother was born, contact us,
      we are glad to meet colleagues in street photography ;)

      of course, we have added your blog
      to our “Street Stalkers” list :)

      style-friends, as it was in previous blog!
