Bio: Residence: Peter Krug has lived in Hallein since 2016. <br />Partner: He lives with the artist Lucia Nadia Cipriani. <br />Childhood: Krug's childhood was very difficult. He never met his biological father, who allegedly advised his mother to have an abortion. He spent his first two years in a children's home and had a poor relationship with his mother, who later repeatedly placed him in institutions. During this time, he often felt alienated and unable to express himself verbally. Chess helped him distance himself from his troubled past. <br />Relationship with his mother: In 2011, he broke off lifelong contact with his mother, Herta Bertel. She died on April 12, 2024. <br />Health problems: Since the fall of 2023, he has been suffering from an undiagnosed illness. Symptoms such as tingling and numbness in his feet worsened in 2025, leaving him barely able to stand or sit. These complaints severely impair his everyday tasks. <br />Additions to his professional career and skills <br />Chess composition: <br />He has composed over 650 endgame studies. <br />First published a chess study in 2005. <br />Since 2015, he has memorized thousands of studies by training his memory skills. <br />Since 2024, he has been experimenting with memorizing historical chess games. <br />Yoga teaching activity: <br />From 2003 to 2020, he taught yoga three times a week at the Freilassing Sports Park. <br />The collaboration ended because he refused to be vaccinated or tested. <br />Photography: <br />Since October 2023, he has held the status of "Master" on the GuruShots platform. <br />He has published numerous landscape, portrait, and animal photographs. <br />Additional comments on his views <br />Compulsory vaccination and sanctions: He considers compulsory vaccination to be "rape" and the sanctions against Russia to be "economic warfare." <br />Yoga philosophy: He sees yoga as a path to greater honesty, renouncing unnecessary pursuits of prestige and fame. <br />Legacy: He advocates the idea that a person's true legacy lies not in their possessions, but in what they leave behind for others.
