Bio:I am a native Catalan and Spanish speaker with a Master's in English and German Philology. I studied in Barcelona (Catalonia), Groningen (The Netherlands) and Wuerzburg (Germany) and several subjects were translation courses.
I live in Southern Germany and work partl...y as a translator and second language tutor since 17 years.
My love for languages started as an early teenager; that's why I always try to learn new ones and, because of that, I also understand much Portuguese, Italian and French, as well as some Dutch.
My specialties are: marketing, business and commerce, consumer electronics (photo, video, TV, audio, digital media, office, printing, informatics, telecomm, energy, household appliances, tools and games), logistics, localisation, linguistics and literature.
And although I use most of my experience in languages as a translator, I have also worked as an interpreter in several trade fairs and business meetings since 1997.
