#Newcastle may be getting the world's biggest #ferriswheel , but it'll be a while before it's as iconic and haunting as this one. https://thecuriousvicuna.wordpress.com/2019/07/25/what-to-expect-from-a-visit-to-chernobyl/ #Chernobyl #Chornobyl #Ukraine #travel #travelblog #travelblogger #travelphoto #travelphotography #reactor4 #nuclearpowerplant #kiev #kyiv #kievgram #photooftheday #solotraveller #travelgram #instatravel #visitukraine #radioactive #pripyat (at Чортове колесо / Pripyat Ferris Wheel) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0Y1WN6grwg/?igshid=16ohcgxa8elov

What to expect from a visit to Chernobyl

It's impossible to sum up how it felt visiting #Chernobyl, but I've had a go anyways. It's one of the most remarkable #travel experiences I've ever had. #travelblog #pripyat #ukraine #kiev #travelblogger #reactor4 #darktourism

Early starts aren’t nice. They’re even worse when you wake up in a cold sweat imagining you’re trapped in Chernobyl and history has repeated itself. Thankfully, it became clear that hadn’t happened when I woke up, but it did leave me unable to get back to sleep from about 4am, four hours before my tour began. Perhaps that was my subconscious telling me that I was a little more apprehensive than…

Have you always wanted to know how to make #ukrainiandumplings? Probably not.

How to make Varenyky (Ukrainian Dumplings)

Writing about Chernobyl is taking a while, so in the meantime here's something about my #Kiev #cookingclass: How to make Varenyky (Ukrainian Dumplings) #ukraine #ukrainiancuisine #foodie #travel #travelblog #foodtravel #travelblogger

I usually try and do a cooking class in every country I go to. So far, I’ve learned how to make curry in Sri Lanka, sushi in Tokyo, and watched my mam get told off for not listening by an Italian grandma. However, I’ve never had a cooking class one to one. That changed when I had a go at making traditional dumplings with Alisa in Kiev. I had been excited about the class since my first taste of…

It's mad that this now peaceful spot is where one of the greatest disasters modern history took place.

I like #Kiev and it might be a little bit because of the #food https://thecuriousvicuna.wordpress.com/2019/07/15/just-what-is-ukrainian-food-actually-like/ #kyiv #Ukraine #Ukrainianfood #ukrainiancuisine #caviar #borsch #aspic #chickenkiev #varenyky #dumpling #foodie #travel #travelblog #travelblogger #instatravel #instafood #kievgram #travelphoto #foodtravel #foodtraveller (at Kanapa) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz8z8Z_ot0G/?igshid=15f48k0skuv9t

Just what is Ukrainian food actually like?

Just what is Ukrainian food actually like? Read about my delicious 5 course dinner in Kiev! #kiev #ukraine #ukrainiancuisine #finedining #food #travel #travelblog #travelblogger #foodtravel #easterneurope #foodie #borsch #caviar

Kiev is a strange place. It’s both breathtakingly beautiful and hideously ugly at the same time. The skyline is a mix of shining golden domes and abandoned Soviet buildings. There’s even a bridge across the River Dnieper that nobody has bothered either to put the finishing touches to or just knock down.

This, and some brightly coloured churches against the cold, grey sky, was about all I noticed…

Montepulciano: A truly 21st century tour for a 6th century town

After a couple of months away from the Curious Vicuña, I fancied writing again on a family trip to #Tuscany. Yes, I know you don't get vicuñas in Italy but I'm quite fond of the name. #travelblog #travelblogger #montepulciano

The town of Montepulciano is one of the best-known producers of fine wine in the whole of Italy. The picturesque little place is perched atop a hill in the Tuscan countryside. From a few kilometres away, you can make out the renaissance bell towers and the city walls – blots of brown and red on the otherwise green Tuscan landscape. It’s only when you get much closer to Montepulciano that what was…
