Learning French in Bordeaux
The university city in south-western France sits on a wide bend of the Garonne, which is why it is also known as the “Port of the Moon”.
Bordeaux promises you pure pleasure against a historic backdrop. It hardly gets more French than this! The metropolis’s nearly 250,000 inhabitants call themselves Bordelais, by the way. Countless cafés, bars, clubs as well as jazz and blues venues line the old town, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Experience up close the immense cultural offerings and the lively international atmosphere with 70,000 students from all over the world on a language trip to Bordeaux with friLingue.
The Bordeaux wine region is the largest of its kind. 80% of production goes to the typically dry red wine. But Bordeaux is also world-famous for its exquisite gastronomy. Fresh oysters, seafood, fish, beef, duck or goose make gourmet hearts beat faster. And vegetarians, too, get their money’s worth in Occitan cuisine.
By the way: the sandy beaches of the Atlantic, the Pyrenees and the Basque Country are practically just around the corner!
Learn French in Bordeaux right on the language border between the Langue d’oïl and the Langue d’oc. Occitan, however, is no longer spoken in the city. French is, though – and you will learn it at our professional and friendly language school quickly, efficiently and with lots of fun – because only joy teaches languages!
