From the end of the 1960s, he lived and worked mainly in Wrocław, Poland, but did not renounce his Soviet citizenship, as that was how he was able to visit Estonia.[4] In 1967, he changed his Estonian surname to a foreign one, henceforth writing the surname with a "Y" and adding a comma after the first letter, in order to simplify foreign contacts.
