Hey, I am Parimal from Mumbai, India. Work as a SAP consultant with Bayer and soon will be shifting to Cologne for about couple of years for a Business assignment. I did visit cologne back in June2010 for about a month and loved the place ~ more so cause i was interested in sight seeing and visiting places in neighboring countries. The best thing about Cologne or most places around cologne, is the public transport. The accessibility that it provided to travel around without being dependent on a car was a huge relief. I am eager to shift to cologne and meet locals and expats in general. I have a keen interest in photography and will be looking forward to investing more time with those interested. Have also spend little time in learning guitar, and with cologne being the art center, i hope to be more exposed to music in general. Looking forward to the moving in a new city

I was on a short Business trip to the office in Mülheim back in July2010. I was given accommodation in Leverkusen Mitte, which i found a bit dull. I found myself spending most of the evenings in Cologne. Since, it was a short trip, I was keen to see other places around Cologne and Germany on the weekends. All and all, it was short trip and couldn't really
The people in Cologne. Ready to have a good time anytime... also, impressed by the public transport system.
The weather.
Born and brought up in Bombay.
The most amazing place on the planet. Alive and running 24X7. The diversity of people, cuisines and lifestyles is something you rarely find in any other city of India.
There's nothing that i don't like about this place. :)
