Rosie Benn sets off on an epic adventure through five European capitals. As a young deaf woman who uses sign language, Rosie is keen to explore deaf culture in other countries. What is life like for the local deaf community and what are the highlights for deaf travellers seeking out a short city break?

Rosie visits the up and coming tourist destination of Lithuania, a former Soviet state nestled between Poland and Latvia. She discovers that until recently, life was tough for deaf people in the capital city of Vilnius. Many of them were housed in a notorious block of flats with a reputation for drug taking and violent crime.

But things have been getting better ever since the country won its independence in 1991. Rosie meets Giedrius Paulauskas, a deaf fashion designer who has quickly established himself as one of the best in the business, with customers from as far afield as Tokyo, Paris, Los Angeles and London. Finally Rosie tries her hand at a Lithuanian obsession - orienteering. But will she be able to navigate her way through the local forest?
