I have a (little) head start. I self-studied a French IGCSE some years ago, although I've forgotten a lot.
•
My grandparents live in France, when I visit I can get some useful speaking practice (which is gold dust when you're learning a language remotely).
•
It seems easier than German.
•
I'm interested in Germany/German history.
•
I'd prefer to live in Germany than France.
•
I like WW2/Cold War/Eastern Bloc films.
•
It will be useful for learning Norwegian.
•
France/French is kind of boring. Nice for holidays, but that's all.
•
It looks extremely hard, and I'm not naturally good at languages.
•
I've never been to Germany and I don't know anyone living there.
