Finally, the summer is here, the sun is shining outside, temperatures are rising and we catch ourselves daydreaming about new destinations and vacations. If you have always been curious about Asian languages and culture and you often wonder where the translators are located and what type of people they are, we can offer a way to satisfy your curiosity.
Get familiar with top Asian Summer Destinations
We have just the right destination for you where you can relax and meet with some of our translators: Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia. You will probably wonder why there exactly, well the answer is simple enough – Rainforest World Music Festival – one of the most famous and biggest music festivals in Asia.

Did we catch your attention? Great! Now the only thing left is to pack your suitcase and go.
The festival is held between 13-15 July 2018 near Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia – nestled at the foot of Mount Santubond, where the traditional tribal houses of Sarawak are located.

Grab your luggage and go! You will definitely enjoy the different cultures, music, and food. You can dance and participate in different workshops. Let yourself enjoy the atmosphere and become one with it.
Our recommendation is to leave your expectations at home and experience that wonderful feeling of summer, fun, mountain, and nature. Find new people, meet new friends, listen to unique music, see the Asian culture first hand and take home a little part from the East.
What this all has to do with translations?
So you’re all set and ready to go. Enjoy! We will enjoy it too. You may wonder what’s the common thing between this festival and the translation business. Well, there is a lot in common actually. Translation business is not only about the source and target words, you need to have an understanding of the culture and way of living behind the language. This knowledge makes us better in our job, it helps us to provide great translations and to understand our clients better.
The Rainforest World Music Festival gives us an opportunity to expand our cultural knowledge through wonderful music, which is a wonderful language by itself. You don’t need to understand the lyrics to grab an understanding of it, you can just feel the message behind it. So, don’t wonder anymore and join the festival like some of us will do.
Knowing the places, the nations and people we work with is a powerful tool, when talking about languages and translations. But this knowledge is even more important when we’re talking about self-growth and how to enjoy living. However, there is one more fact we discovered about this intriguing event – a common feature between 1-StopAsia and the festival is that they both started at the same year back in 1998.
