Word games at 7am are hard to my brain. Thanks!
I know, it is a bit early for anything at that time of the morning, except for making breakfast.

According to his cv given in the other thread he is/was from Estonia.
I haven't read the cv so, I was unaware of his origins, though the way his sentences were structured and his use of tenses led me to the conclusion that he comes from Eastern Europe.
