Thread: Visiting Translation?

Buenos dias a todos. I am going to Chile in a couple weeks and I'll be staying at my fiance's mother's house. I haven't met her yet, and she speaks very little English, if any. I was hoping to get some help with translating some useful phrases/questions that would be helpful during my stay...
Could someone tell me how you would say, or of similar context:
-It's so nice to finally meet you!
-I am told you're an artist, may I see some of your work?
-Is there anything I can help you with?
-Thank you for raising such a wonderful person... (awe)

Um..now I'm really nervous and I can't think of anything so say to her...lol
Oh my....any ideas?
Thanks so much.

I imagine how nervous you are!!

Here is my humble contribution:

-It's so nice to finally meet you! = ¡Es un placer conocerla finalmente!
-I am told you're an artist, may I see some of your work? = Me dijeron que es artista. ¿Puedo ver alguno de sus trabajos?
-Is there anything I can help you with? = ¿La puedo ayudar en algo?
-Thank you for raising such a wonderful person...= Gracias por haber hecho de "John" una gran persona... (here you can have some other options....and better ones... ).

Good luck!!

It's so nice to finally meet you!
Que bueno al fin conocernos!

I am told you're an artist, may I see some of your work?
Me contaron que usted es una artista, podría ver alguna de sus obras?

Is there anything I can help you with?
En qué puedo ayudarla?

Thank you for raising such a wonderful person...
Hehe, are you sure you actually want to say that? I shouldn't be commenting this, since it's none of my business, but you brought it into public view. In Spanish it sounds a bit tooooo sweet....then again, maybe your mother in law is one of those mothers that are just too proud of their kid...suit yourself: "Gracias por educar una persona tan maravillosa"

Good luck!

I agree with Verónica. Maybe that comment is a "little too much"...jejeje
But remember: It´s your choice!!

Take care!
