Chernobyl. There’s no better place in the world than here.’
Chernobyl had cast a shadow over our childhoods. It was reportedly the cause of all the chronic diseases we’d struggled with. In the summer of 2018, we went there.
We wanted to walk into the belly of the beast, to debunk any nonsense around it. To hear about the doom, catastrophes, and everyday struggles.
But what we came back with was something else entirely - a beautiful and uplifting tale about love. Love for home, love for nature, love for people. Something stronger than the biggest nuclear accident in the history of humankind.
With uncertain times ahead of us all… it has given us the hope that we can overcome a whole lot, if only we care.
