A child born in exile, to whom a “bear” brought an orange: Onutė’s path to a Dzūkija village

"There are many opportunities not to grow distant, not to stay stuck in your village and not to grumble at all the governments and systems of the world," Margionys village resident and ethnographer Onutė Drobelienė tells LRT.lt about life in the country. Born in exile, Onutė today enjoys creative happiness surrounded by the nature of Dzūkija and says that the village is changing significantly, where one can hear a medieval harp and feel the importance of community.
