Greatly enjoyed the Annual Lithuanian Pol Sci Conference last week: great panels & stimulating chats w colleagues after my keynote. Special thanks to Gražina for a wonderful walk in the Old Town - you're not only an excellent teacher & generous colleague, but also a 1st class tour guide!

A fire alarm delayed Baltic independence by a week. But it was a real pleasure yesterday to have Paris Chen (U of Birmingham, f: UCL SSEES PhD) with us for another week of Baltic Politics & Society seminars! Always great to chat in Estonian with my Taiwanese friend, too. 🙂

Excited to have participated in the excellent Estonian Legal Scholars Conference and share my thoughts on how to improve Estonian parliamentarism (further). Really enjoyed seeing so many old and new colleagues and friends in beautiful Tartu!
