Montpellier

The famous 'Place de la Comédie'

The city of Montpellier (260.000 inhabitants) offers a beautiful historic centre with narrow picturesque streets, elegant private mansion houses dating back to the 16th century and many tree shaded cafés. As a typical student town with 60.000 students there is a very attractive cultural life and the daily cost of living is much lower than for most other destinations in France. Many street musicians and artists contribute to the warm Mediterranean atmosphere of the city. Montpellier opens like an amphitheatre toward the Mediterranean Sea with its long, sandy beaches and the salt lagoons with huge colonies of wild pink flamingos. The interior is fascinating and unspoilt with many creeks, gorges and mountain villages to be discovered. This is also a big wine growing area with many excellent wines to be tasted.

The climate is excellent. Summer lasts until late October and one can even sit outside in winter to drink ones coffee in one of the numerous cafés. The sun shines on more than 300 days a year...
