My Goodness(Irish Pub). the cathedral is the cultural aspect most relevant, since the whole city was destroyed during the world war. Anyway, people in the city is too cordial and amicable, I've got very good friends with whom I am still in touch. Geographically I would say that it is near everything, Amiens is a city just at Europe Center

The similarities between Spanish and French makes you to find very easy to learn it. At the beginning I learnt a lot of new vocabulary, however from th third month on, it was just improving the pronunciation, uttering was more and more real and fluent.
