Downtown Winston-Salem!!

I've been working as a Spanish Medical Interpreter for the last two years, and I have to say it is an awesome job! My co-workers and I interpret for the medical community and patients at Wake Forest Baptist Hospital. Wake forest also is a University, so the interpreters help train future physicians and physician assistants on how to work with an interpreter when seeing a spaish speaking patient.

Yesterday, April 29, my supervisor asked me if I wanted to help with the training. I immediately said yes! So I drove Downtown to where the training was going to be...and boy was I surprised!

The buildings are part of the "new" Wake Forest University "campus".... and I write "new" because the building used to belong to RJ Reynolds Tobacco Company. They donated these huge buildings where tobacco used to be dried, chopped and made into cigarettes. Wake Forest did an awesome job restoring the buildings!! These are very old buildings, and the remodeling was done in a way the maintained the industrial look to it..it looks awesome!! So here are just a few photos of the buildings.



















I just love the way these buildings look! Hope you enjoyed these photos!
