Hello! Welcome to TeachTranslateTravelRepeat (TTTR)

My name is Jamie. I’m a freelance German- and Spanish-to-English translator and a freelance English (TESOL – Teacher of English to Speakers of Other Languages) from the UK. My passions include learning/teaching languages, translating, and travelling. This is what ultimately led me to create TTTR.

Me exploring Shiretoko Goko: Hokkaido’s UNESCO Natural Heritage Lakes in Hokkaido, Japan in late summer 2024. This was a guided tour through one of Japan’s largest UNESCO nature areas. It is difficult to get to the Shiretoko peninsula due to its isolation and lack of infrastructure. It has a lot of bears, so you must go with a government-certified guide with extensive training in how to handle bears. A few people are killed in areas like this in Japan by bears every year. Regardless it is worth the trip! I am happy to report that I did not see any bears close up during my time there.
