About Me
Michel Baljet
"I am Michel Baljet, a Dutch journalist and researcher. My travel has taken me across continents and into conflict zones, where I was regularly in the right place at the wrong time. I am driven by the desire to discover the truth and provide impartial reporting, even if it means fully immersing myself in the most challenging landscapes of our society. I am currently in a period of medical rehabilitation. Despite this temporary setback, I remain steadfast in my work, using this time to write about current events and share thought-provoking pieces from my extensive archive. As always, I stand ready to dive back into the beautiful waste heaps of our society as soon as I am able to do so again.
