Freelancer Translator/Interpretor Of Russian Lan

I work out of Room No.019 in the Mandavi Hostel over at JNU. It’s a typical student room, a bit cramped with a lot of books and papers scattered across the desk. Being a freelancer translator and interpreter for the Russian language means my work goes where I go, but this is the main spot where I sit down to do the heavy lifting. The hostel is usually humming with the sound of students talking or the wind blowing through the trees outside. It’s not a formal business office by any means. I have my laptop, a good dictionary, and a chair that sometimes squeaks when I move. People reach out when they need something converted from Russian to English or the other way around. Sometimes I have to head out to meet clients, but mostly I am here, typing away. JNU is a big campus and Mandavi is just one part of it, but it's where I feel most productive. I don't have a team or a receptionist. If the phone rings, it’s just me answering it. The room gets a bit of sunlight in the afternoon which is nice for reading through long documents. It’s a quiet life of words and grammar. I’ve been doing this for a bit now, and my desk is always covered in notes and translated drafts. It’s just one person in a hostel room trying to get the Russian meanings exactly right for whoever needs them.
