It was indeed sleepless in Seattle as I slept late every night I was
in Seattle thanks to the hospitality of the wonderful Korean
interpreters in Seattle.

Thursday meeting was a very good beginning. I counted 21, a lot more
than about 10 I originally expected, which truly made my week and
made it all worthwhile.

Big congratulations to Ji Eun for the award and to Jacki Noh for
being elected director of ATA.

My hats go off to both Ji Eun, Vania and all the wonderful
interpreters in Seattle, Chicago, Philly, New Jersey, New York,
Denver, Los Angeles, San Francisco and elsewhere. If I left out any
location, I am truly sorry.

Very briefly and to the point, I am back and already miss everyone
and I truly feel very comfortable working with everyone that I have
met. Thanks everyone. Although in life there are trials and errors,
the fact that we met and are willing and committed is the big first
step. Regards.
