Speaking exercise

I have traveled a lot and I saw a lot of beautiful cities but my favourite one/city is San Sebastian or Donostia. When I was in Germany, I met a lot of Spanish guys there and one friend of mine from Spain invited me for 3 weeks to Spain to travel there a little and we spent 1 week in Madrid, 1 week in Barcelona, and 1 week in Donostia. Each city has something to see or to explore but Donostia is very special in that case that it has everything, the sea, the mountains, very nice food, people and history and also very interesting language. The people speak Spanish, Basque, French because Donostia is very close to France. The best cooks in Europe are from Donostia. When I’m talking about men, there are a lot of men there who work there as cook. In europe there are a lot of competition about the food and always the winner is from Basque/Donostia also I think because of the products which cooks are working. The products which cooks need for preparing good food.

I have traveled a lot and I saw/have been a lot of beautiful cities but my favourite one/city is San Sebastian or Donostia. When I was in Germany, I met a lot of Spanish guys (there) and one friend of mine from Spain invited me to Spain for 3 weeks to travel a little so we spent 1 week in Madrid, 1 week in Barcelona, and 1 week in Donostia. Each city has something to see or to explore/sightsee/adventure but Donostia is very special in the case that it has everything, the sea, the mountains, very nice food, people and history and also a very interesting language situation.

The locals speak Spanish because Donostia is in/located in Spain. However, Donostia wants to be independent from Spain. So, they speak their own language which is very complicated in comparison with Spanish.

OR

So, they speak their own language which is very complicated compared to Spanish. 

Finally, they also speak French because Donostia is very close to France.

I read an article that said the best cooks in Europe are from Donostia and from my experience, I agree.  When I imagine a cook, I imagine a woman. But, there are a lot of men in Donostia who work/train/learn/intern there as cooks. In Europe there are a lot of food competitions and the winner is always from Basque/Donostia.

Also I think the products from Donostia which cooks are working with are good/high/great quality.
