Let's build bridges between Australia and France
Caroline SandersFrench translator • South Australia
Translation is about communication, and it’s about people.
It’s about the person who wants to share their message with a French audience. And it’s about the French readers who will better understand that message.
The translation of legal documents is about people involved in a court case; about people who want to get married, or about a family that want to move on after a divorce; it may be about someone who has given instructions about their estate. It may be about entrepreneurs and small businesses who want to expand their area of influence, and about legal practitioners who want to communicate with their French counterparts.

Building bridges
I have been living in Australia since 2002, and I remain deeply French at heart. With an Australian husband and a Franco-Australian daughter, building bridges between Australia and France, between the languages and the cultures, is an everyday undertaking. This is what has nurtured and sustained my interest in translation – facilitating communication between Australian and French people.

Translation of Australian legal documents
When I arrived in Australia, I became intrigued by the differences between the Australian and the French legal systems. That has led me to study English-to-French legal translation.

Caroline is a skilled, reliable and professional translator with an eye for detail and willing to go the extra mile for clients. Highly recommended!
Caroline has been providing English into French translation services to us for over 5 years. In that time, she has shown an unparalleled commitment to her work and she has been incredibly easy to work with. I would have no hesitation in recommending Caroline to others who are in need of a world-class translation service.
I enjoy
spending time with my family, practising yoga, walking among trees or on the beach, reading (from novels to books on translation, entrepreneurship, sustainability, transpersonal development), listening to podcasts, keeping abreast with what is happening in France, and simply enjoying life.
I especially like spending time in France while getting a full cultural bath.
That includes visiting friends, family and places I cherish, of course. But also checking new magazines, new shops, raiding my favourite bookshops, enjoying a French croissant with a coffee, making the most of the French food I love, and just walking in the streets taking in my home country.
Caroline is very professional and continuously seeks to update her skills and knowledge as a translator.
