About Me

Gatsbie Interpretation, Translation, and Travel Services

Hello, da jia hao! I am a local Wuhan girl and freelance Chinese-English interpreter and translator. I am also a freelance tour guide. In the past, I have worked for a foreign trade company and studied English at Wuhan University. I will be glad to assist you in any of the following areas.

On-site and remote (phone/online) interpretation in various contexts, such as business, legal, real estate, health, government, education, and interracial dating

Document, multimedia, and web translation

Travel assistance, such as organizing tours, arranging local and out-of-town transportation, booking accommodations, and buying health insurance

Other assistance, such as helping you figure out what you need to complete your visa application, ordering goods and services from Chinese businesses and websites, and helping you in emergency situations that require interpretation and translation

If the request is something that I can do very quickly, then usually I will do it for free or by donation (alipay or paypal accepted). For longer requests, I will give you an estimate of the costs based on an estimate of how much time it will take me to complete, and for emergency situations, we can decide on the payment later. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

Cheers,

Phoebe

I had a great time with Phoebe. She was professional and prompt. I had a day to see the important sights and hiring her was money well spent. I'll be working in Wuhan next fall and will recommend her to any friends and family that visit.

Phoebe gave my friend and I an insightful tour of the Hubei Provincial Museum. If we had gone alone, we would have ended up with simply a lot of photos with no story behind them. In some instances, the stories themselves were more interesting than the artifacts themselves. With her as the guide, we learned many interesting things. We learned who is inside the special colored coffin in the tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng, the story behind Goujian who likely owned the special King of Yue Sword, the meaning of the Chinese idiom wo xin chang dan and how it relates to Goujian, and related idioms such as tying one's hair to a house beam to help stay awake, and the rise and fall of Qu Yuan and his relationship to the dragon boat festival. China's history and culture is very rich. Fortunately, we had a good guide to help us appreciate the history and culture. Her English is excellent.

I can greatly recommend the services of Phoebe Chen.

When visiting Wuhan and Shi'yan earlier this December, she provided invaluable assistance with complicated business problems. She was also 100 % professional, but still friendly and easygoing. Her English was very good, and all interpretation performed excellently.

She was also very kind and doing her very best helping to get all the difficult tasks done. And most importantly, she is an honest person you can trust fully.

Wenn Sie nur über wenig Feizeit verfügen, weil sie z.B. aus geschäftlichen Gründen in Wuhan sind, aber trotzdem noch etwas von der Stadt oder Region sehen und erleben möchten, empfehle ich Ihnen Phoebe als (Tour) Guide. Sie kann Ihnen sowohl in administrativen Angelegenheiten behilflich sein als auch aus Ihrem Wochenend-Trip das Maximum herausholen. Erkundigen Sie sich über Ausflüge an den "Drei Schluchten Stausee", welche von deutschen Reiseveranstaltern nur als 4- oder 5-Tages Kreuzfahrt im Paket angeboten werden oder z.B. über eine Ausflug in die Berge von Wudangshan, berühmt aufgrund der daoistische Heiligtümer, Paläste und Bauwerke . Beides kann in einem Zeitraum von 2 Tagen bewältigt werden, wenn es gut organisiert und im voraus geplant wird.

Phoebe is really a professional in her field of activity. She has an excellent feeling how to guide a travel group or a single person, to meet their needs and she has a deep knowledge of her city's hotspots, cultural places and long history. She also knows the region's surroundings (e.g. the Three Gorges, the Wudangshan Mountains etc.) and is able to provide tourists off the beaten track places in or next to Wuhan or Hubei province in general. Phoebe is able to provide a customized tour according to your preferences as well as to propose an exciting itinerary to anybody who is indecisive what to do best or has absolutely no idea what to do at all as I did. If you are an extremely busy person or feel like running out of time but want to visit all the 1000 places you have to see, I'd suggest to hire Phoebe to make the optimum of your stay. Knowing the venues of her city very well and due to her friendly kind, I would chose Phoebe as my tour guide at any time again. Thank you for all you have done and your care about me. Tanja

I hired Phoebe for a few of days when I was on a business trip in Wuhan.
Phoebe was more helpful than I could have ever imagined.
She is really very nice girl with sunshine character.  She always stood in my position to think the situation.
She  makes the effort to become familiar with your requirements so she can act in your best interest.
Throughout this time we were in rooms with high temerature  and whilst some translators/guides would complain, Phoebe was very professional, flexible and had a great attitude.
She helped also with plane tickets and even top up my chinese phone.
She is very resourceful and has a great ability in handling difficult situations.
I strongly recommend her for business or tourist services.
