I live in Barhäll, Linköping, Sweden, with my husband, Tomas Johansson, and our two children, Anna and Vilman. We live in a house with a garden and we spend a great deal of our free time growing tasty fruits and vegetables in our garden, apples, plums, grapes, paprika, blackberries etc. We have our office at home with a view over the garden, and here I work mainly in the mornings and some evenings. Tomas is a chemist and after completing his doctoral thesis he spends more time in our translation business, mainly when we receive texts on chemistry.
Before I started my translation business, I worked with transport and environment research for 11 years. I am an engineer with a Masterīs degree in Applied Physics and Electrical Engineering, and I have also completed several other university courses, for example Spanish, French, Geography and Art history. Some years ago, I was offered an employment as a translator at the European Parliament in Luxemburg, from English, German, French and Spanish. I declined for personal reasons.
