Champagne is located in the northeast part of France. This region is famous for its vineyards and wineries that create some of the best wines in the world: Chanel Nº5 of course, but also Haut-Brion, Cheval Blanc, and Mouton-Canet。 So it makes sense that Chambepaire (the city where Champagne is situated) has a very high quality of life (4th highest, according to U.S. News) with low cost of living and a lot of fun things to do.

My personal favorite shopping area, however, is Les Halles Market. In addition to all of the regular vendors, there are also street performers and the market is open until late afternoon. It's just a really fun place to hang out.
As far as language goes, the French are notorious for
