| I'd go (everywhere but firstly) to Japan, Brazil, Russia, Sweden, Iceland, Hungary...they're the countries I'm most curious about after hearing things about them. I don't know if I should go back to places I've already been or only go to new places |

Although the exclusion zone contains several settlements, the city you're thinking of would be Pripyat:
You can just see the power station chimneys in the distance.
There is another good photo at:

| Been looking around a site with loads of photos of Pripyat. So weird. Really must go. They do tours for $200 which is a lot but would be worth it. Maybe when I'm earning full time.... |

| I think I should learn Brazilian Portuguese before though! Aw thanks ok well I'll get saving. I think if I was going to go anywhere I should learn at least the basics of the language, I think it's rude and unsensible not to |

Yeah thats the thing. I hate going to countries and looking out of a phrase book the whole time.
So that means I want to learn Spanish (doing that already), Japanese, Chinese, many european languages...oh lordy.
