When I came to this camp I wanted to see another culture. I believed chess can bridge gaps. Chess does not have ethnical or politics problems. Chess can help to understand the logical problem on the chess table, and can help to learn the strategic and the tactical way of thinking.
When the workshop started I asked if anyone would like to play chess with me. Some students wanted to play, and we made simultan.
Simultan is a special form in playing chess. The chessplayer can play with several opponents at the same time.
I played with them and it was very interesting. When we played time stopped, and Palestinian, Israeli, Austrian and Hungarian students gathered around the players and supported them.
First time I played 16 games and Sagi made remis (draw/patt), and Arthur won of his games.
The second time I played 20 games, but none of the students could win.
The students were very happy, and would like to play with me another time.
This is the way how I can help the dialogue for the future.
