The month of May has flown by in a whirlwind of emotions and assignments.
Among many highlights, I had the pleasure of flying back to Baku as an for the 13th edition of the UN-Habitat World Urban Forum - "Housing the World: Safe and Resilient Cities and Communities."
Housing is often taken for granted, yet it remains a major challenge in many parts of the world, with 1.1 billion people living in informal settlements or slums and more than 300 million experiencing homelessness.
I cannot thank Aleksandra Smoczyńska and OLA Interpreting enough for having me on board—not only as an interpreter, but also as a Team Leader.
Special thanks go to all the technical and supporting team as well🙏
Managing sessions with more than six languages was not always easy at first, but it ultimately allowed me to put my soft skills into practice and build even stronger human relationships.
Finally, I had the opportunity to meet in person colleagues whom I had only known online, putting faces to names 😊
