My favorite strategy game

Hello, could you help me by reading my text and giving me some comments !
Thanks!

I've discovered Go three months ago thanks to my roommate. He is an animator at a primary school where he teaches children how to play Go- he taught me also once at home. My first remark about Go is it is very simple with rules, which I can learn it in few minutes, but it is very hard to master because of its various techniques and strategies.

Luckily, my small city has many active Go players who organize regular meetings as well as promote Go to primary children and secondary students. I joined the club and from then on I meet Go members twice a week. One of the facts about Go in my city is that there are many French people playing Go and a few Chinese, Japanese and Korean- they are the best. However, it is not surprising because the game originated from Chine more than five thousand years ago. The second interesting fact is that most of Go players are very good at math and in my city many of them are programmers. Of course there are researchers, engineers, PhD students, and they are all good at applied mathematics.

To improve myself I read a book of Go written in french by a Japanese. author living in my city. It sounds strange that I can meet a famous author of my favorite book right in my city, actually,I go to the meeting at his house every week. I will continue in Go and I will join more and more activities in the club, as it has become a part in my life.
