ENGLISH VERSION BELOW

J'ai rencontré Pablo à Montréal la semaine passée et nous avons décidé d'organiser ce pow-wow ProZ afin de rencontrer d'autres collègues avant les vacances d'été. En tant que traducteurs, nous avons la mauvaise habitude de passer trop de temps devant notre ordinateur, alors que nous savons tous pertinemment à quel point il est important de rencontrer nos collègues en personne pour partager nos expériences, nos idées ainsi que quelques histoires...

Le pow-wow se tiendra au Club Espagnol de Québec sur St. Laurent, entre Mont Royal et Marianne.

Les organisateurs

Matteo est un globetrotteur d'origine italienne qui sait apprécier le télétravail et un style de vie nomade. Il a vécu et travaillé en Italie, en France, en Espagne, au Canada et en Australie. Il a aussi passé les deux dernières années en tournée avec AC/DC.

Ce sont les multiples migrations de ses parents qui ont prédestiné Pablo à devenir traducteur. De son Chili natal, il a très tôt déménagé en Argentine, pays d'origine de ses parents. Ensuite, il est allé au Brésil, en Italie, en Espagne, et il est actuellement au Canada. Il a fait des études en physique, en musique et en musicologie. Bien qu'il ait commencé sa carrière dans le domaine de la musique, ce sont ses champs d'intérêt divers et la flexibilité du travail de traducteur pigiste qui ont pris le dessus.

ENGLISH

I met Pablo in Montreal last week and we decided to organize this PROZ powwow to touch base with other fellow colleagues before the summer vacation. As translators, we tend to spend too much time in front of the computer although we all know how important it is to meet other colleagues in person, to share experiences, ideas and stories…

The powwow will take place at the Club Espagnol de Québec on St. Laurent, bewteen Mont Royal and Marianne.

THE ORGANIZERS

Matteo is globetrotter from Italy who enjoys remote working and the mobile lifestyle. He lived and worked in Italy, France, Spain, Canada and Australia. He spent the last two years on tour with AC/DC.

Pablo's destiny as a translator was laid down by the numerous transfers of his parents from one country to another. Born in Chile, he soon moved to his parents' native Argentina, and then to Brazil, Italy, Spain, and currently Canada. He studied physics, music and musicology, and started a career in music, but his multiple interests and the flexibility of freelance translation got the better.
