CultureLife in exile: Monetochka thought Vilnius would be a stopover. Four years later, she may stay forever
Russian singer Monetochka says she moved to Vilnius when Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine began, expecting it to be temporary, but fell in love with the city and may remain there forever. She has adapted to Lithuania’s slower pace, enjoys cycling with her children, and favors the Kaziukas fair and Kalvarijos Market, though she says she may never again feel she truly belongs anywhere.
