Philippa is a freelance translator living in London, UK.

After working in-house as a translator in the legal field, she decided to take the plunge as a freelancer and doesn’t miss cubicle life one bit. She started blogging as a way of tracing her progress as she faces new and exciting challenges in her career, whilst allowing her to reflect and encourage debate on the translation profession as a whole.
