Paul (Introduction)

[paulmassey]

I thought it would be a nice idea, as trip-goers, to introduce ourselves before we meet in China. So here I am



I'm in Beijing for the first month of the trip. I've been playing Go for about 3-4 years, not really sure of my rank, but at local Go club am about 1kyu - IGS rank is 4k*. I'm sure I'll find out on the trip

Talking of which, things I'd like to get from trip:
Find out my rank
Get better at Go!
Learn lots about China
Meet lots of new people
Play Go in some really cool places (any suggestions?)
Buy some nice Go equipment

Finally, (if you're still reading) a little about me. I'm 27 years old. I'm from Cornwall, England. I run my own business providing programming services (see http://www.absolute-software.co.uk ). Apart from Go, I'm into music, movies, books, philosophy, badminton, computers, drinking and having fun

See you in China!
