I remember that we always have school exchanges with Reading and in my high school back then there were students from Haifa for a few occasions.

No, I don't live in paris itself but in the greater suburbs. Like 32kms north of it.

My city is around 12.000 inhabitants, so is Marbach Am Neckar, we got every year germans visiting our city and they stay at home with our neighbors. I can't welcome them unfortunately, my appartment being too small. But they seems to enjoy their yearly trip in here.

Where I used to live, Oakville, Ontario, the partner city was:

Neyagawa, Japan

And where I live now, its a Dutch city but I dont remember the name right now

edit, I just found out that the twin city is "Itabashi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Itabashi), a ward of Tokyo, Japan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokyo%2C_Japan)."

I wonder why all Japanese cities?

Anyway I'm pretty sure one of the signs here says the twin city is a town in the Netherlands...

Ah, ok.

Our University has a partner University in Nantes, that's why there are many students from Nantes here every year. Almost like a partner city.

Nantes is one of my fave french city. It has indeed a very nice university and many youngs, decent bars, pubs, clubs and so many other activities. No surprise you got some of them in Dusseldorf too. I recommend you try and be picked to go there someday if you're in uni yourself.

I'm not anymore in UNI. I'm somewhat of a voluntary dropout, started studying biology wasn't too happy being in the laboratories and honestly partied too hard and fell behind in some parts, then chose a complete different field (partly accidental) and ended up in advertising. (Job while studying -> Job-training -> Apprenticeship -> Job -> private school/evening studies)

A friend ended up studying in Nantes. He's FC Nantes fan now :lol: I even have a FC Nantes button, but that's another story.

He's a korean from Berlin who moved to Düsseldorf 10 years ago and was already fluent in french. Yeah he had a nice time there and i think he's still somewhere there. Just see him from time to time and a few weeks ago he was pretty drunken and tried to explain me the FC Nantes chants (He's also a Fortuna Düsseldorf supporter when he was here, every weekend in the stadium and all that). I think he just needed a replacement while he was there. I even saw one of his girls here. Unfortunately my french is less the rudimentary :| )

And yes he seems to love Nantes.

I visited only two American city in my life, NYC and Albany, jesus, I don't mean to be rude but Albany has to be the most pointless city in the state of NY. If you're into american politics ( particuary state, local politics ) there are some interesting newspaper put out by some of the uni and other organisations, but that's about it. Upstate NY for the most part is dismal and shouldn't be a consideration of travel for basically anybody.

Ok Toki. ;) don't worry about french, german is a second language here ( basic at least )

Orange) actually had a purpose...

German is hard ! I used to be good at it back in high school but I forgot about everything since I replaced it by English which was more important for me recently.

I guess you speak to foreign tourist in Germany in English, it's more practical than listening to them trying to put out some words of bad german. ;)

AFAIK they have alot of cultural (highschools/universities/cultural goods like museums, art, music, folklore) and business exchange (Investments/Tourism/special local Solutions). Basicly creating win win situations and make some worldwide friends.

Btw ahmmm i think i even translated the title wrong. Partner Cities = Sister Cities.

Stockholm don't need no stinking sister cities !

Someone tried to claim we're a sister city to Helsinki but eh, no sorry, and some guy on the net said Belgrad is one. Eh, wrong again.

Our county is a sister country to Miami Dade, Florida tho. that's it
