Kaliningrad and Belarus nuclear power plants. (NPP1 and 2)
on the border of Lithuania.
Prepared by:
Dr. Stan (Stasys) Backaitis, P.E., SAE Fellow1
Lithuanian American Council
One NPP containing two reactors, will be situated in Astravets, Belarus, approximately 20 km (12 miles) east of Lithuania and about 50 km (31 miles) from its capital city of Vilnius. The other set of two reactors will be constructed in the Kaliningrad enclave approximately 10 km (6 miles) south and west of Lithuania’s border. (The Kaliningrad enclave is a small patch of Russian-administered land wedged between the European Union nations of Poland and Lithuania.) In case of a nuclear disaster, the two NPPs pose a grave danger to Lithuania and other North-European countries.

Whoa, those are a lot of questions.For alfdroabfe hostels you can take a look here: or here. If you’re to go into the countrysides where there aren’t many hostels available you might be able to camp if you bring a tent. You can find a listing of camp sites here:Regarding what to bring:- It isn’t necessary to bring 5 months worth of toiletries: there are plenty of shops in Europe that will sell you more or less the same products that you could get in the US. By all means bring a box of tampons and a bottle of shampoo, but you’d be needlessly taking up precious space if you take more.- Same thing for food, no need to stock up, you’ll find plenty of stuff you’ll recognise, and part of the fun of travelling is discovering new things.- One word of advice: don’t assume that you’ll be able to shop 24/7, in many countries shops are closed in the evenings and on sundays.- If you’ll be camping, bring camping gear, a gas stove and some cooking gear. Bring a first aid box, some basic pharmaceuticals (pain killers, antidiarrheal tables, antiseptic spray), a small sewing kit, worldwide adaptor plug, – In most major cities you’ll be able fine just speaking English, if you go into the countryside then you should bring a phrasebook.Regarding best times to travel: if you check wikipedia then you’ll find a weather chart for many major cities (for example). Where to travel and when depends on your personal preference (ok with hot/cold/wet etc). Mark what you really want to see on a map, connect the dots in different ways, and see what would make for the most interesting journey.A lot of countries in Europe have good public transport systems. You have to decide where and when you want to go, and check the schedules on how you’ll be able to get there. Don’t forget that saturday and sunday timetables might be different from weekdays (I once ended up walking miles because there were no busses on sunday).Finally there’s a wealth of information on the internet for first time backpackers, here are some sites that may be usefull:Take a look on these sites and get in touch with people that can share their experiences.And last but not least: take plenty of pictures, and have a great trip!
