If you had asked me this time last year... Jun 13, 2015

... I would probably have said no, I would continue to translate just for the love of it. Times have changed.

I look forward to the day I can quit freelance translating, but if I didn't have to worry about money chances are translation would be part of what I did. Obviously not the typical freelance translation at that point.

I would probably work occasionally for a few selected clients and for Translators Without Borders.
