Where in the world are you?

Hello, my name is Malini. I work in Operations at EMC in the US - specifically, Massachusetts. My favorite holiday destination is Vienna. A place I'd like to go but haven't been to as yet is Mongolia.

Hi Karla,

Sound like you are a born traveller - or perhaps a wanderer Super!

Hey Folks.

Here goes:

Willkommen im EMC-SAP Ecosystem, Bas.

San Francisco is a charming place.

Looking forward to hearing more from you in our community.

Bonjour Sylvie!

It's a pleasure to have you here. I have no French blood but Paris is a special place for me too.

Colorado sounds lovely. I'm a hiker so I'd go in summer.

So I guess we'd never run into each other up there. We save our meetings for Hopkinton --- or Paris.

Cheers,

Malini

Hello to everyone,

I'm Tim, and I work in the SAP Global Solutions Practice at EMC.  As my screen name would indicate, I live and work in Philadelphia but I have a desk at EMC HQ in Hopkinton and I'm there at least once a month.

I have been working in the SAP space since 1996, and because of my SAP work, I have been to many places around the world - most of North America (San Francisco Bay Area, Southern California, Phoenix, Washington DC, Pacific Northwest (Seattle and Portland), St Louis, Texas, Florida, Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa), Paris, Madrid, Frankfurt, London, Milan, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Tokyo, and Mexico City.  Since I am currently the Practice Lead for Latin America, I was recently in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, my first time in the Southern Hemisphere, and it was so wonderful.

I have gotten to know some of these cities quite well since I go to some of them often, so if anyone need any information or recommendations, send me an email or ask me a question here and I will try my best to provide you with an answer.

One city has a very special place in my heart is Paris, where I spent part of my youth, and it's city that I know very well (I even rent a car to drive in Paris whenever I'm in town, and my friends think that I'm crazy), so I have that in common with Sylvie (je parle Francais).  I visited the EMC office in Nanterre back in 2008 and I hope to be able to work again in Paris sometime soon.

CarolCal wrote: Hi Philly_SAPguy, It's good to hear from you.  With your years of SAP experience I hope we will be hearing from you on a regular basis. I have  vacationed once in Paris.  It was very early Spring (April),  on the day we were leaving it was lightly snowing.  Does it really snow that often in Paris?

As far as I know, it does not snow any more in Paris than in Boston, in fact, I believe that it snows less in Paris.  May be Sylvie can comment?

However, it can be very damp in the winter in Paris which makes it colder than it really is.

BTW, while the early Spring is the preferred time for most people to go to Paris, my wife and I actually prefer to go there in late November, when they release the Beaujolais Nouveau to be savoured with game meats (they call it La Chasse in French) or in mid December when Paris looks magnificient as it gets ready for the Christmas holidays.  The Christmas displays on Boulevard Haussmann (at Galerie Lafayette, Printemps, etc) are a must-see!

Hi Andrew,

Welcome to EMC and welcome to our community!

Everyone I know who has been to New Zealand says it is one of the most beautiful countries in the world.

I hope you can make it there this year.

Looking forward to hearing more from you on the site.

Cheers,

Malini

Hi Dawn,

Lovely to see you on the site. Hope you like it, visit us often, and share your views.

Where "out West" do you go skiing? Colorado perhaps?

Cheers,

Malini
