Show Notes

The Best Things in Life are Freelance  is an episode all about freelance translation. I am joined by freelance translator, Valentina Alia, who tells us about her experience.

In this episode, we find out Valentina’s journey to becoming a freelance translator and why she chose this job. We also hear about her day-to-day life, the best and worst bits about being a freelance translator and how things have changed in 2020. Valentina offers some great advice to anyone who is thinking of becoming a freelance translator and together, we answer the questions you sent in.

You can find out more about Valentina, subscribe to her newsletter and get in touch with her via her website, valentinaaliatranslator.com or on LinkedIn by searching ‘Valentina Alia’. Her new course, Translation for the Fashion Industry, will be available soon on TranslaStars.

Thank you to Valentina for joining me on this episode, to Pippa Williams for creating the jingles and to everyone who sent in questions and comments.
