Interests
A wide range of interests allow me to work on virtually any kind of translating or proofreading projects, from cooking to advertising, through education and business and many other subjects.
I spend my free time working in the volunteer sector and have developped a liking for anything new, I enjoy undertaking new projects and the discovering process that comes with new experiences.
As my background shows, I am very fond of literature and any form of writing in general, I have a passion for words and the communication process as a whole. I had the chance to publish an interview I made of a Russian translator. That was a first time for me and I absolutely enjoyed the experience.
