whom are you networking with to get the word out that you want more international exposure? Have you contacted any of the major networks who send their journalist abroad to let them know that you may “host”, “sponsor”,etc… for their organization? As an interpreter, I would think your skill sets are powerful as an avenue to build relationships.
What are your thoughts?
