Craft knows friends in Estonia and has asked them their feelings about the EU and the euro. It's interesting.

Do you know people from the other countries? What are their feelings about it?

A friend from my college period is married to a girl (woman) from Slovenia. She came to the Netherlands months before Slovenia separated from former Jugoslavia. So she wasn't there when all the trouble began.

I haven't spoke her for a while so I don't know what she thinks about Slovenia becoming part of the EU.

I also know a woman who is Polish, she was in Poland during last weekends festivities. I am going to speak to her tomorrow (if she's already back). I will ask her opinion about this matter.
