Hello my name is Robert Bäckström, I live in Sweden. At the moment I am at a University studying archaeology.
I have been interested in the civil war for quite some time, I saw the movie Gettysburg when I was younger and I wanted to know more about thoose who fought. My dream is to visit USA some time in the future and se some battlefields.

Welcome, Robert

Always a pleasure to greet a fellow European. I have fond memories of a brief visit to Stockholm and in particular of visiting the Wasa Museum. An amazing ship...
