Trying to make a living on the streets of Stockholm with two kids back in Romania. This is Petrianu Florin at the pedestrian street Drottninggatan asking people for help.

It’s a hard road.

Great street photography and also showing the very troubled times these days. Can we ever get out of it.

A tough life.

That's got to be tough, hopefully some people will help.

There seems to be no end to this. How sad.

Somehow I think this isn't going to work out for him. Where's the famous Swedish safety net. I don't mean to sound skeptical. Some things can't be revealed in a photo. In the US people would say, oh, he looks strong and healthy, why can't he get a job? Well, jobs are sometimes hard to get. And someone else would say, there are employers crying for able workers. I have no clue what to think about any of it. One can speculate.
Well, your photo certainly has gotten me thinking! Curious about your thoughts.

Poverty in Romania for a certain part of the population is extremely high, Judith.
