| Jim is a rootless Englishman who translates from Dutch into English and has been doing so full-time since 1994. He is married to an Espaņola (Carmen) and their baby Jamie is 3 weeks old in the photo. He has been living in Holland since 1987 and is slowly getting used to the Dutch. He joined Lantra around the time he stopped working for an agency and started working from home, and he was very grateful to have Lantra as a safety net in terms of professional social contact and practical help. These days this role has decreased, particularly as there is now a very good mailing list specifically for Dutch translators. But he likes to pop in occasionally to soak up the community spirit and renew old friendships.
