Love in the Disaster Relief Air

For Valentine’s Day, Team Rubicon looks back on some of our favorite love stories—conventional and not.

Turning Passion Into Service

Some couples have been known to meet while in grey. Some couples drag their loved ones into the TRibe. Some develop mad disaster response skills as a sort of “romantic revenge.” The story “More Than One Way Into the Grey” has it all.
