Aoife NĂ­ MuruchĂș from Waterfall working for Medecins Sans Frontieres in Afghanistan.Cork woman speaks about her life as a nurse in Afghanistan

“While life is confined to compounds, I have daily contact with my Afghan counterparts, with MSF national staff and patients. The warmth and hospitality of the Afghan people, who suffer from decades of war, displacement, and loss of family and friends, is remarkable. Although the impact of decades of war is very visible even in daily life sometimes, I have experienced the Afghan people to be extremely warm and kind, friendly, funny, hospitable and respectful.”
