To everyone reading this, hello. Pleased to meet you.

I'm a Japanese translator-in-learning, for about 1 and a half year now. I dream of one day working for a manga/novel translating company (like, for example, Viz Media or Yen Press). I'm a 19-year-old male who's currently studying languages (Dutch (mother tongue), French, English and Spanish ~ Japanese as a hobby) at college (I'm a first-year) to become a translator in the future.

Since the summer of 2013, I officially became an otaku and joined its wonderful community.

A month ago, I started my own scanlation group, together with "mayukachan" (on MAL). We named it Eien wo Fukukaze (永遠を吹く風) --- `The wind that blows forever/eternally´. This is our temporary site where we're hosting our releases: http://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=69595.

Here on Baka-Tsuki, I'm currently working on the translation of the light novel series Golden Time (ゴールデンタイム), together with its main translator, Rpapo.
