Here he works in the Department for Central Engineering and Plant Support headed by Yong Hwan Kim. Dinesh is married and has a three-year old son called Divyansh who goes to the International School. His family joined him last summer, they now live in an apartment in Manosque where a small Indian Community has established. "It is funny but all of my Indian colleagues seem to live in Manosque and we spend much of our time off work together exploring the French landscape and — carefully — also the "French cuisine."
