A fun fact about myself: I am into adrenaline, I like to ride curvy roads on my motorbike and this year I am going skydiving. But when I play go online, I'm totally panicked about losing rating points.

At an alumni meeting in 2010, people randomly started playing some Go. I got interested and looked for a Go club. Now I am a 1D.

I started playing Go after watching the AlphaGo documentary. I first saw it in 2020, played a few games and was so baffled I gave up. Ironically, when the Queen’s Gambit chess boom started, I remembered Go and started playing properly. I’m now around 10 kyu.

At my first tournament as a ~25k I lost all 5 games. Due to that, I created a KGS account, started playing many games and reached SDK level a few months later. So be careful and better let me win my games, otherwise I'll improve even more!

The grandmother of a neighbour, a worldly woman whom I admired greatly, taught us Go when I was about 12. The fascination for the game always stayed in the back of my mind, but it took me over 20 years to pick it up again. My playing strength is currently about 7-kyu.

Go is one of the maximum expressions of the human mind. We paint turtles, flowers and dragons with black and white stones, and we never find the bottom of this game.

When I was a kid, I was sure I wanted to be a Fantasy writer. Then I grew up and realized I don’t like Fantasy all that much. Writing is still fun, though!
