My name is Wolfgang and I have lived in Cologne since 1990.
I grew up in Bocholt, a town in Münsterland, near the Dutch border. There was Westphalian stubbornness, lots of Catholics, carnival and Dutch joie de vivre.
Cologne is different and I enjoy it – and above all, bringing other people closer to what makes Cologne so endearing as the “largest village” in Germany
