Surprizing about UK, because Brits are generally helpful to visitors anyway

abcWOMAN: We are taught to read and listened to other Scandinavian languages in school, so we can communicate with our neighbors! In northern Sweden we understand Norwegian better than Danish. It’s the opposite in south Sweden. We don’t speak Danish here! I understand Finnish, since I speak it! In Finland they learn Swedish as their second language. If your country would have been closer to us, we’d probably understand Icelandic better too!
Hejja Island!
I find more people speak English in Finland than Swedish, they teach it in schoopls now to a very high standard.
I wouldn't call Finland the friendliest country in the world, unless the Finn is drunk, then he is your brother.

Interesting. I have never been to Iceland. East African people are very friendly. A great tourist destination.
