D’Laine Camp

 

As long as I can remember I’ve been fascinated by language and addicted to reading. I was born in the United States and emigrated to the Netherlands just before my tenth birthday, where I was raised in a bilingual family.

After studying Art History and Archaeology at the University of Groningen, I was delighted to find an occupation that brought together my love of words and my knowledge of art and architecture. At first, I combined translating and copy-editing with my work as an architecture historian, but as time passed that shifted more and more towards working with words. Because my motto is: Do what you love and what you’re good at!

 

Maria van Tol

I’m a born reader, raised in the Dutch port city of Rotterdam. I studied Philosophy at the Erasmus University Rotterdam and English at the Hogeschool voor Tolken en Vertalen (ITV) in Utrecht; I also followed courses in interior design and architecture. I’ve been working with great pleasure as a translator at InOtherWords since 2003. My favourite architectural form is that of the courtyard.
