Hi Daina,
What an amazing blog! I found your pictures on Flickr first, I love the map of all the migrant hostels, and using google maps is a great way to share the locations.
The Migration Museum have started a Flickr group and are asking people to share their photos of the migrant hostels: http://www.flickr.com/groups/migranthostels/pool/with/5423788617/
We'd love to hear from you and other people in the Lithuanian community who have photos on Flickr.
Looking forward to seeing what else you have in store on the blog.
