Good luck!

from the Netherlands, and I am doing my bachelor in physics
& astronomy at the University of Amsterdam. I developed
an interest in cubing in November 2016, inspired by a friend
of mine. I=E2=80=99ve also juggled for a long time, but
unfortunately stopped a few years ago, due to lack of time.
I used to do tra mpolining, ice skating and competitive
tennis, and have been doing gymnastics for a year now.
Besides obviously being interested in physics and the
universe and stuff, I also like maths, though I don=E2=80=99t r=
eally
know much about it (relative to probably a bunch of people
here).
experience, I semi-regularly do 3x3x3 speedsolves (averaging
around 35 seconds, using CFOP), and have solved the 4x4x4
and 5x5x5 a couple of times as well. Another thing I like to
do is 3BLD, solving a 3x3x3 blindfolded. I enjoy doing this
more than just speedsolving, because of the extra mental
challenge. I am really curious to whether anyone has looked
into blindsolving the 3x3x3x3, because I would love to try
