The TED story

I have always loved TED and how it makes ideas and information available to everyone. I started translating TED videos as a way to gain experience in translation, but I was captivated by the fun and TED's awesome community. I love attending group discussions and feeling part of something larger than me, a collective of amazing thinkers and game changers.
