About

Hi, I’m Yannick! Born in Monaco, raised with Dutch roots, and carrying an Italian last name, my journey has been anything but typical. I speak 4 languages fluently (Thai hopefully coming soon) and have spent most of my adult life in sunny Florida before making the vibrant city of Bangkok my home.

Throughout my life, I've always had a passion for traveling—I've visited 67 countries and counting! I love exploring the world's flavors, especially trying new and weird foods. I'm also an avid collector of vintage video games (with a special place in my heart for Nintendo), and, of course, Magic: The Gathering.

Yannick The Gathering is the culmination of these passions. I wanted to create a space where everyone feels welcome, where fun is at the heart of everything, and where people can take a break from reality. Whether you're here to play some kitchen table Magic or compete in awesome tournaments, I invite you to come and experience the magic in the heart of Thong Lo.
