Not only because of the nationalities on our team \u2013 one our project I can easily count ten different nationalities \u2013 but because the company is present is so many different countries. This exposes our people to many different cultures on a daily basis, which is almost like travelling abroad. It is really great to discover and learn about my colleagues&#8216; experiences and their hobbies, sports, food, religion and routines. Once a month we try to gather to try a typical food from each country, it is a unique experience, not always delicious, I must admit!! As a Brazilian I brought a Feijoada to the team. Feijoada is a black bean stew cooked with sausage, pork ribs, bacon, and other meats. For Brazilians we eat it with rice and Farinha (yuca flour), but I have seen people here eating it in the bread, like a soup, with cheddar. That almost gave me a heart attack! But this is the world, right? What is good for me, might not be that good for you. And everything works because we have respect and fun.
