#FotoVorschlag - Kurioses Souvenir »Curious Souvenir«

Without a doubt my most strange souvenir was the ever so slight bit of radiation ☢️ that I brought home after visiting Chernobyl and Pripyat while visiting Ukraine.

As soon as we got there an adorable stray dog came up to us. There are packs of strays living in the Exclusion Zone because pets were left behind when Pripyat was evacuated (residents were told to leave them as they'd be back be home within 24 hours). We obviously gave the very friendly cutie some attention and pets... Right before we were briefed 𝘯𝘰𝘵 to touch the animals because of radiation. 🫢 Still #WorthIt

Amazing journey! When did you have it?
We went in 2019. It was an incredible experience. Pripyat was so eerie as everything was just left there. It was planned to be an international destination city and then it was abandoned. Seeing nature take back what's hers was beautiful. I'll probably post more pictures of our visit over time. There will be a couple today, for sure.
@[email protected] we have the exclusion zone in Belarus. It's possible to visit the abandoned villages and even to climb up on a tower to observe that electric station and confinement.
