Malta : Discover
With more than 160 years as part of the British Empire, a bilingual population and a cultural environment that favors the language of Shakespeare, Malta had everything it took to become one of the world's leading destinations for learning English. And every year, some 80,000 students, including 10,000 from France, go there to learn English. At the same time, they enjoy the charms of a Mediterranean country that boasts some of Europe's best sunshine and sea temperatures. And it's no slouch when it comes to festivities, as evidenced by its Carnival, which, with six centuries of tradition, is one of the oldest in Europe, or the many festas that enliven towns and villages and allow you to experience life at close quarters with the Maltese. You'll also appreciate this honey-colored country as you drive along the 250 km of the archipelago and follow its many hiking trails.
