Have you heard of Cologne, Germany? Or maybe you've seen Köln written like this. Same city but Köln is in German and Cologne is more standard in English. Many people know Berlin, Munich, and possibly Hamburg but what about Cologne? It's one of the largest cities in Germany and a great place to consider living. Josh and Kalie from ExpatsEverywhere break down Cologne in this city guide. There's a mix of old and new and you have the option of living around either. The city is big and has a lot to offer. With things like the Rhine River, Carnival, beer, and more, consider Cologne for moving to, living in, and working in.
