Vancouver, Canada

Home of the 2010 Olympic Winter Games, Vancouver is one of the world’s most beautiful and livable cities. Not only is it situated against a stunning backdrop of mountains and ocean, but its geographic location makes it a gateway between North America and the Asia-Pacific region.

Vancouver’s business community has a growing need for professional interpreters and translators. Thanks to its ethnic diversity and urban sophistication, the city is also an ideal place for cross-cultural studies.
