Welcome to my Blog

My name is Arkadi Burkov. I am a native Russian speaker and have been a professional translator and interpreter for over 10 years now.

Since I started my freelancing career in 1999, I have been climbing up the translation ladder to reach ever greater heights, garnering more valuable experience and gaining even more valuable customers in the process. Sure, I had a fair share of set-backs, which taught me, among other things, to pick customers wisely and plan ahead even more carefully.

The blog I have now launched pursues two goals: first, I view it as a place for sharing my unique translation experience (everyone’s experience IS unique after all) and learning a few good tricks from my visitors, and second, I hope this website will serve an additional purpose  of helping me find new customers. For prospective clients specifically, I intend to maintain and regularly update a customer section.

So, I hope for a triple “win” situation where all three target audiences — myself, my fellow translators and my prospective customers — gain multiple benefits, and many more than I can even dream of.

Thanks a lot for dropping by. I hope we’ll be seeing more of each other.
