I have mixed feelings on Kiev overall, but I gotta hand it to them, their architecture game is on point 👌🏼🇺🇦 (plus 3 photos at the end that posted as black boxes on my last post 🙄) #kiev #ukr #ukraine #kyiv #chernobyl #chornobyl #pripyat #reactor4 #nuclear

Chernobyl ☢️🎡🧸 Touring #Chernobyl last

Chernobyl ☢️🎡🧸 Touring #Chernobyl last week was pretty wild... Did any of you watch the HBO series a couple years ago? This wasn’t somewhere I had really planned/wanted to visit, but we had the opportunity when we were in Kiev last week so figured we might as well 🤷🏼‍♀️ The nuclear disaster happened in 1986, when Ukraine was still under Soviet rule (they just celebrated 30 years of independence on August 24, the day we landed, which was a fun coincidence!). One of the most mind-blowing facts I learned on our all-day tour was that even though 350,000 people were evacuated when reactor 4 blew, the exclusion zone really should’ve been much wider (all the way to Kiev and beyond) but the Soviets couldn’t afford to evacuate that many people… So they basically told residents to keep their windows closed and wash regularly in order to avoid radiation contamination 😬😵‍💫 Today, 35 years post-explosion, the Chernobyl exclusion zone remains pretty much a ghost town, but there are some “self-settlers” who have voluntarily returned. We actually got to have lunch in Chernobyl city (food grown elsewhere, obviously 🤪). Didn’t see any mutant animals, but did learn that Chernobyl is home to one of the only remaining populations of wild horses! 🐴 Oh, also… a few countries came together to build the $2B confinement cover over reactor 4 (which you can see in pic 8*), but it will continue to be highly radioactive for the next 20,000 years, or until we figure out a way to neutralize radioactive materials 🙃 *UPDATE: 3 photos posted as black boxes in this post so they’re included at the end of my next post instead! #chernobyl #chornobyl #kiev #kyiv #ukraine #nuclearpower #nuclear #pripyat

Contrary to what you would think, malted milk balls did not, in fact, originate in Malta (snapped while exploring Gozo by ATV, hence the forehead helmet mark) 🇲🇹 #malta #dwerja #dwerjabay #fungusrock #azurewindow #gozo
