Teewinot. Why is a real estate agency on Mallorca called Teewinot? What exactly is Teewinot? What does it mean and what kind of language is it? We have heard these questions many times.
Our origin lies in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming, USA.
Teewinot is a term from the Shoshone language and means "many pinnacles" or "many peaks". But Teewinot is also the name of a peak in the Teton Range in the National Park of the same name in Wyoming, USA, whose impressive skyline can be seen in our header above. But what exactly does that have to do with Mallorca?
1996 was a very special year - it was the best time I had in my whole life.

In 1996, as a student of business administration, I decided to write my thesis on national park management and virtually fought my way into an internship in an American national park - Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming. The months I spent there were definitely the best time of my life. But it is not only the impressive high mountain landscape of the Teton Range and an interesting job that remain in my memory, it is above all the people I met there who have left a lasting impression on me. The enthusiasm, passion and incredible team spirit were so impressive to all of us that we are still in touch today, over 25 years later. Teewinot was a term that accompanied us every day, because in addition to the mountain, the park's visitor newspaper also bore this name. And since this name was so special to all of us, I decided that - should I ever found a company - it would bear the name Teewinot. Thereby Teewinot stands as a symbol for commitment and passion, for an intensive cooperation with customers, partners and colleagues and for the fact that we do our job out of conviction, so that the success for our customers and us consists of "many peaks".
