From the Latvian capital he covers the Nordics and Baltics for media outlets in both The Netherlands and Belgium. The best thing about that is his freedom to travel around the region as much as possible. His topics range from defense and energy to migration and startups. Many years ago he studied journalism and the thing that he remembers most from this time is a 4 month reporting trip through nearly all former Soviet Union republics. Aside from that he enjoys riding bikes, photographing airplanes and being an all-round nerd.
