Hello magicians from all around the globe!

I just wanted to introduce myself, I'm 23 years old and I'm from Switzerland! (little country in the middle of europe..for those who haven't heard of it)
I'm currently studying English at the University of Zurich and apart from that very eager to learn the art of magic. Especially card tricks are my favourites, but I appreciate all other kinds of magic too! Although I'm not a complete beginner since I know some sleight of hands and tricks (and how to present them..) I still have a lot to learn and I'm really thankful that this forum provides a lot of possibilities to get information about magic, especially the magic books for beginners that are recommended by advanced magicians and so on.

Besides, If anyone is interested in skyping in order to help me improve my skills or sleight of hand or just have a talk, I would definitely appreciate that - just in case someone is interested

Yeah I noticed that myself, before I have officially registered for this forum, I read about 200 posts about every possible topic. The reviews of some of the newer magic tricks in here are really helpful, that's why I came to this site in the first place. I can't stand when buying a magic trick because of the great description, just to find out later that it isn't that great or has angle issues or etc. Actually, I perceive this café as being an immense library or university where knowledge about magic is stored and taken care of. Love it to be here!

Welcome Wheeler,

Since you've been reading here a while you know how helpful it can be.

But now that you area member you can get involved in the conversation.

It's a whole new level.

Here is a thread started by Steven Youell a respected Magician here at the Café (and all over America at least, I don't know how far he travels).

It is about his tutorials via Skype. This might be just what you are looking for.
