    Hi John! :D
    Sorry I missed your comment somehow, don’t know how it happened…..:S
    But to answer your questions:
    We have been in the EU since 2003.
    The language in Estonia is estonian :) It has some similarity with hungarian language.
    Other facts about Estonia:
    We are famous for having the most beautiful women here, if you don’t believe, come and see ;)
    Our nature is also very beautiful and we have lots of nature reserves and isolated places that most of the Europe doesn’t have anymore. Lots of bogs and over 50% of our country is covered with thick forests.
