SAP Community - Where are you from?

[lauraschmitz]

SAP Community keeps growing and growing and I am super excited for this Welcome Corner as it gives the chance for not only new members but everyone to get to know one another and connect with each other.

As my colleague @KatherineKenneally gives an overall introduction to the Group and what you can expect from it in her blog post, I’d like to take the opportunity to start a discussion about the different locations represented in our global SAP Community. I am interested to read where you are located and where SAP Community is spread around the world.

I am from Germany and currently living in Wiesbaden, which is the capital of one of the sixteen German states located in the west. After years of studies and living in different places, my hometown has caught me again with its charm and the closeness to friends and family has won me over.

But now I am curious, where are you tuning in from?

[StephanieMarley]

@Phyn it is great to meet you. I am based in the Philadelphia, PA, US (so not too far away!) My SAP career started as a customer using materials management, and then I became a SAP BW consultant. I joined the SAP Community quite a while ago and have appreciated the community ever since. Best of luck to you.

[Phyn]

Thank you Stephanie. You are right, not too far away. I'm hoping to take advantage of the free training . Hoping with HCM. 

Hope I find the right path. 

[LisetteM]

Hello again,

I am currently tuning in from Brussels, Belgium. 

[KatherineKenneally]

[LisetteM]

@KatherineKenneally I joined, thank you!👌

[KatherineKenneally]

That's great news @LisetteM - maybe you can network locally with some of the group curators and others like @WouterLemaire and @geert-janklaps - happy networking!

There are some in India as well and maybe there is one with a city, closeby where you live. The idea is that this group helps to connect local people.

[EmanuelGraves]

Hi, I already presented myself in the welcome corner, but I think that telling a bit more about myself may be interesting to someone.
I am from Moldova originally, it's a small country in Europe, I already accepted the fact that many people don't know about it. I came in the USA 2 years ago because I wanted to see the culture I always dreamed about looking at movies and TV shows. I am studying at the University of Virginia, and to be honest I love it here. I have finally the life of an american student with parties, field trips, friends from all around the globe and moreover I am enjoying the studies. I hope that it's enough and interesting to someone, if you have any further questions you can address them.

[KatherineKenneally]

Welcome @EmanuelGraves - I've heard of Moldova! If you're a fan of movies and TV shows then I definitely think you will enjoy some of the discussions over in our Coffee Corner! In case you don't know already, we use the Coffee Corner for more light-hearted and off-topic discussions - please feel free to join any discussion or start one of your own!! 
I'm also from a small country in Europe, Ireland - and part of the SAP Community team.

FYI - we also have: Beginner Corner, SAP Learning Group and  Career Corner.
Hope you enjoy your time here in SAP Community and good luck with your studies.
