Hi my name is JingYun Huang 黄靖云 황정운. Nice to meet you.

I have been a tech data analyst in China, a personal fitness trainer in the USA, a Chinese mandarin teacher in Chile, and am currently a sailor for the Clipper Around the World Race.

Apart from doing different stuff, I spend the most of my time traveling and getting to know the world we all live in. I enjoy learning about the languages ppl speak, the history that makes societies and mindsets, and especially how ppl live their everyday life in different corners of this planet.

I quit the tech job in 6/2023 to participate in the sailing race. I will be traveling till 1/2024 before joining the race from Australia to China.

I created this account when I had a place to host ppl, but now I can’t as am traveling. I’d love to host once I settle back down.
