Originally posted by original PM View PostYeah maybe you stop being a guest when you properly go native and genuinely integrate and embrace where you live?...
As a foreigner, bitching about the country's customs or laws is a bit off regardless, but integration is a two way thing.
I like Switzerland and have some Swiss friends, but it's majorly hard work. The Swiss barely integrate with each other! Someone from the next village is a foreigner - they talk funny.Leave a comment:

Anyway know any good bars in Cologne?
Severinsviertel (*), although quite a few don't open until 22:00. Friesenviertel and this area: Ausgehen am Ring - Köln - Stadtspiel - Stadtverführer - Stadtspiele-Verlag
Actually most of Köln is good which is why it has the reputation of the best nightlife in Germany...
