Beautiful country and great people. I really like Montpellier and the South of France in general. Paris is probably my favorite city after New York.
I must admit that I'm not much into the competition between the two cities. I actually like Marseilles too, but don't tell anyone from Montpellier about that, or I'll be lynched next time I go back there.
My parents both studied at the University of Montpellier that is why we have a special connection with the city and the backcountry.
It really seems like every northern European likes the south of France of obvious reasons. Plus people get to meet once a year!
