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?

[Muthumayandi_Yadava]

[umeshkarane]

hello All,

I am located at Pune , the culturally rich & technologically advanced city in India.

Originally I from Mumbai,it's twin city , where I was born & bought up.

I have migrated to Pune 6 years back for good.

I loved Pune, for it's pleasant ,cool weather, relatively lesser people congestion as compared to Mumbai or other populated cities, for it's IT HUB and automotive manufacturing companies & overall other oppournities that it offers.

Also it's famous for it's culture & heritage.

I have joined the world of SAP in July 2007, when my organisation gave an oppournity to it non-sap employees to shift into SAP. We were given SAP classroom training sponsored by company after which we gave SAP certification exam.

Since then it's been a roller coaster ride in SAP across 3 organisations, working on multiple clients for SAP implementation projects.

Every passing year, SAP world seems to grow & we keep learning, hearing new things.

I feel happy to join this SAP blogger community so that I can learn from others and contribute by posting SAP blogs.

Thanks 

Umesh Karane.

Pune,India

Hello @umeshkarane welcome to SAP Community. As you live in Pune: there are a lot of community activities around India: there are location groups and community events. I would like to recommend to subscribe to the event calendar of SAP Inside Track and SAP Stammtisch, and maybe there are some events close by where you live.

Hello!

I come from Trier, Germany. This is the oldest city in Germany and it is close to Luxembourg.

[sveabecker]

Hello @Holger_Simon welcome!

Trier must be beautiful. I never visit but both of my children did during a school outing. 😊

Enjoy your stay here - for beginners, the Resources page  with many tipps & tricks, videos and the Tour the Community tutorial is a great starting point!

[KatherineKenneally]

@Holger_Simon @sveabecker - I had to look up Trier - looks like a beautiful city. I'd love to visit some time. What would be the closest airport, would it be Luxembourg?

[sveabecker]

I am sorry, I don't know. From here it's a trip with a bus or by car 😅

Hello everyone!

I'm from Bulgaria, currently working and living in Sofia, but originally from the beautiful city of Plovdiv.

Plovdiv is an incredible place with a rich history that spans over 6,000 years, making it one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. It's a city where ancient history and modern culture blend seamlessly. One of the most fascinating facts about Plovdiv is its ancient Roman theatre, which is still in use today for concerts and performances. The Old Town of Plovdiv is a treasure trove of beautifully preserved buildings, cobblestone streets, and vibrant art galleries. It's a hub of cultural heritage, with influences from Thracian, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman civilizations.

Plovdiv was also named the European Capital of Culture in 2019, highlighting its importance as a cultural and artistic center in Europe. It's a city that truly embodies the spirit of diversity and creativity.

Looking forward to hearing about where all of you are from and learning more about your hometowns!
