    Just one comment: The French language is radically different than Spanish or Italian in pronunciation and one good example of that is the the "au" sound usually pronounced "ao" in Spanish and Italian is instead pronounced simply as an "o" in french, same thing for the "eau" too actually. So, this means that Pau is pronounced like "Po" not "Pao", anyway, great video, thanks!
