Hi,
I am translator English > Portuguese (BR) and I live in RI. I would like to try to go to the powwow. My routine is crazy... Also, it will depend on location.
Looking forward to see people out of this screen.

Hi Taciana,

Welcome. It would be great to meet you in Boston! It'll probably be somewhere in downtown Boston. I was thinking that if the weather is nice enough, we can meet at a park, such as Public Garden, or the Copley Square area. If it's too cold, wet or windy to be outside, we can find a cafe in the downtown area. Hope you can join us!

Where in Rhode Island are you from? I just went to Newport this weekend and I love it there!

Powwow Boston Feb 27, 2017

Hi P.K.

I think it'll probably be less than 20 people attending. The Josiah Quicny Elementary School is at a central location and it's definitely a good option if you want to go ahead and ask. I'll send out an email to all the people that have expressed interest to propose possible locations soon. Thank you in advance.

Boston Powwow Mar 3, 2017

Hello everyone,
I would love to come, but have a family member in bad health, which might prevent me from coming. I am a Danish translator and have lived in the Boston area for 22 years. I am also on the board of NETA (New England Translators Association) and would love to give a little spiel about it to anyone who is not familiar with what we do.
I hope to meet you all on the 11.
Alice

Hi Peipei Mar 8, 2017

Hi Peipei,
I am sorry I did not answer you. I did not see your reply.
I live in Cumberland, very close to the capital, Providence. Newport is about 40 minutes from here. Rhode Island has nice beaches. We like Narraganset beaches (and also the clam cakes!), but Newport is a very beautiful place. It seems like Einstein liked to navigate that waters.

I am looking forward to meet everybody.

So quiet here... Mar 9, 2017

I'm not sure if people are signed up to receive updates about this powwow. I'm starting to wonder how many people will actually come on Saturday. It's going to be super cold too.
