About Szmann
Born in Romania, from a German father. Classical studies, Latin teacher. Currently holding French residency, business owner in a Dutch island where currently spoken language is English. At home I speak Spanish, though. Interest in history and modelling: since babyhood, I grown with my father's stories about WW2; he was a teenager when Luftwaffe and USAF were disputing petroleum fields near Ploiesti, Romania, and the transportation network near Bucharest. He introduced me in modelism as well, although we were building medieval castles made of plywood and glue all. All my modelling effort is dedicated, naturally, to him.
