My business partner, Ulrich Schlegel, is from Essen, Germany and when I joined the company in 2004, I was taking German at the State Language School of Spain. When practicing my German, I found myself saying “meine firma” quite frequently. Later on, when planning this blog, I thought that that might be a nice way to communicate the multi-cultural nature of running a company here in the Canary Islands (which has a fairly high number of foreigners, Germans in particular).
