2023 May 7thAfter landing at Vilnius airport at noon. The traveller was met by a huge group of people with T-shirts congratulating him, Lithuanian flags and flowers, asked for autographs, took pictures together, applauded Aurimas and thanked him for the trip. The next day he had a meeting with President Ginatas Nausėda in the presidency.
"The journey across the Atlantic in the single-seat rowing boat Lituanica involved and united Lithuanians all over the world. For 121 days, we marvelled at man's endurance and determination, wished him a favourable wind, cheered for him and crossed the Atlantic together in our thoughts.
It is surprising how Aurim calmly and modestly talks about the challenge and difficulties he had to face. I think Aurim's trip is not only a proof of stubbornness and determination, but it is also a symbol that "Lituanica" dissected the Atlantic, reminding us of the great achievements, successes and challenges of our nation", said the head of the country.

2023 May 10th, Kaunas Sports HallThe hometown hero is finally back home to Kaunas where he participated in a TV show called ''Kitokie pasikalbėjimai''. During his entrance, all 2500 participants were standing on their feet and gave him loud applause. Luckily, I was one of them and it was such an honour for me to listen to him talk about the trip, challenges and plans. The thing which impressed me the most was his confidence, he explained all the details of the trip calmly, with jokes and no tears. I've never seen such a psychologically strong person who would say that he could've stayed in the ocean even longer. It wasn't a rush for him to complete it, he completely enjoyed the process. In my opinion, this speech inspired many people.
