One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've managed to visit Chernobyl Exclusion Zone in 2014, an officially designated exclusion area around the site of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor disaster. It may sound like weird and quite dangerous holiday destination, I always found those kind of places especially appealing and interesting. The disaster in Chernobyl had a huge effect over modern politics and culture, so the idea of visiting abandoned, frozen in time Soviet city always intrigued me. It felt almost like traveling back in time.
