Once upon a time there was a language lover who studied English and Translation and Interpreting. She spent a number of years working in different roles (including as a translator, an interpreter and a coordinator), and living in different countries. The country she stayed in the longest was India, where she learnt a great deal: she developed a specialism in medical and pharmaceutical translation; she trained as a yoga teacher; she studied the country’s customs, history, and languages… And, after a while, she moved back to Spain and became a freelance translator from English and French into Spanish.

Indeed, that person is me: Aida. After falling under India’s spell, its flavours linger on my skin, so you could say I am a bit ‘masala’. Just as Indian chai mixes different spices to provide a unique experience, so I combine my specialization in medical and pharmaceutical translation with the translation of tourism texts and those related to India, yoga, and meditation, among other things.
