My 6W

Who
My name is Júlia Sorribes, I´m 26 years old and I was born in Valencia (Spain)

What
I am a  journalist, currently working as an English-Spanish translator and copy editor for Xinhua News Agency in Beijing (China)

Where

Since I have always been interested in traveling and meeting people from different cultural backgrounds to share ideas and learn from them,  I am very grateful to have had the chance to experience life in London and now in Beijing.  Although I am more than willing to continue exploring other parts of the world, my mid-term goal is relocating to Europe.

When

I moved to Beijing  in January 2009 after spending a year in London, where I undertook a Masters degree. I plan on staying in China until January 2011, when I will be ready to take on the next big challenge, wherever that leads me.

Why

Because I´m good with languages and writing is what I do best, but most of all, because it´s my way of contributing to the global society, giving citizens all the facts and ideas they need to make informed decisions, learn, enjoy and dream.

How

I´m hard-working, reliable, flexible, resourceful, creative, curious, sensitive, friendly, open-minded, capable of taking the initiative but also comfortable working in a team. I´m a fast learner and I have good planning and management skills.
