He could pass in Finland and probably in Scandinavia and the Baltic states.

I'm going to guess Swedish.

What he said, but he gives me a Slavic vibe.

Is he a Scando/Slavic mix?

He most definitely don't look like the average everyday Swedes I see here. But he could pass, not that well imo.

I would say he looks Finnish if anything.

This confuses things LOL We can pretty much rule out the southern part of the continent. I still go with Scandinavia, North Eastern part of Europe general area. he could be a mix of anything in that general area. Spill the beans, from now on everybody will be guessing, all the combinations possible. End the suffering and let us have it! LOL

LOL. Why would you say Scandinavia(Sweden, Norway, Denmark) ahead of the Baltic states or Finland? Actually, he would fit better in Poland than in Sweden.

Latvia + Estonia my guess.

Yes he wouldn't look out of place in Poland at all. I agree with you he could be a Balt too. He would fit in any of the countries in that general area just fine, no doubt.

Yes, and that's definitley not the typical look among ethnic Swedish men.

I've seen more extreme slavic-looking ethnic Swedes. But yeah, he looks more typical for Finland than for Sweden. He doesn't look lapp at all, doesn't even have squinty eyes.

Swedish mother (with the long blonde hair, when she was young):

Neither of them look Saami to me. Just because someone has wide set eyes it doesn't mean they are Saami.

Hah, yeah sure.

I work with different people almost everyday and never have I met an ethnic Swede who looks pure Baltid, East Nordid or Pontid.

Hmm okay. I know many Swedish/Scandinavian people and can say many have a similar look.

Some examples of Swedes/Norwegians with a similar look:

Yeah Pontids are rare in Finland too. I don't know if East Nordid is a real phenotype. But I've seen plenty of Swedes who could pass as "Baltids" (also an internet invention). We could have a thread like "Swedes who could pass as Poles" or something.

This guy must be part lappid:
