While studying French and German at Oxford, Andrew Morris had the misfortune to meet a (non-translator) linguist who assured him translation was a boring, dead-end option. And so for twenty years he devoted himself instead to language teaching and freelance teacher training in over 30 countries round the world. But when in 2009 a series of chance(?) life events dictated it was time for a major change, he finally realised the error of his ways. He has been making up for lost time ever since.

He now heads Morristraduction, a thriving translation studio with a focus on the arts, culture and travel, and leads a team of 20 hand-picked colleagues.

He writes regularly about translation issues on the Facebook page . Twitter  Website: www.morristraduction.com.
