About me:
Background and interests:
Yoga: Krug identifies himself as a yoga practitioner who focuses mainly on asanas and pranayama. He was led to yoga due to stress and sleep disorders, trained as a yoga teacher in Germany, and thus found his inner balance again.
Chess: He is internationally recognized as a FIDE master in chess composition. He learned to play chess at a young age in Salzburg-Liefering as a means of communication and later composed chess problems and studies.
Photography: His landscape photos, including those of the Salzburg region, have been published in the photo blogs of the Salzburger Nachrichten newspaper.
Public comments and statements:
Attitude toward war: In March 2022, he spoke out against the sanctions imposed on Russia by NATO countries and the US, saying that in his opinion they do nothing to contribute to peace.
Compulsory vaccination: In November 2021, he equated compulsory vaccination with rape, emphasizing the importance of voluntary vaccination. He argued that forcing someone to be vaccinated against their will would cause great emotional distress.
Biographical details:
He was born on November 23, 1966, in Salzburg.
After finishing school, he worked as a cinema projectionist and night porter in Salzburg hotels, among other jobs.
His youth was marked by difficult circumstances, including periods of hunger. Chess offered him a refuge at that time.
