Mosango Hospital
Joris Hermans
Located at about 400km east from Kinshasa and far away from any big cities, Mosango hospital takes care of an area of approximately 100,000 people. Conditions are poor and patients have to struggle to survive. A lot of people come from far away, hoping to get the help they need. Some of them don't return back home...
Behind The Redwood Curtain
Joris Hermans
Urban Dictionary: - Redwood Curtain (adj) The Redwood Curtain (RC) is the extreme northwestern corner of California, i.e. the coastal counties of Del Norte, Humboldt and Mendocino. The RC is the northern Californian version of the Iron Curtain in eastern Europe erected during the Cold War and is mostly used in a derogatory sense, whereby the RC symbolizes the area's lack of cultural or metropolitan qualities as well as poor transportation access, sparse development, rugged geography, and a weird provincialism among the native locals. -
