Weekendul cu Cruce Roşie

Last weekend was the annual summer meeting of the Norwegian Red Cross (Røde Kors) and the Romanian Red Cross (Cruce Roşie) in Târgu Mureş. I was honored to be invited to take part in their weekend activities and become a member. This was a great international effort with so many projects aimed at helping Roma communities and promoting health and well-being throughout the city. Here are some pics:

A VIP tour of the SMURD unit (the emergency response team in Târgu Mureş)and their chopper















The tent where we offered health information, condoms, and blood pressure tests















A few special people who received much deserved recognition and certificates for all their extra efforts in their Red Cross service















These charming Romanians... See how they just steal kisses!















A good team: Moi, Magda, Flavius, and Hochen
