Jin's dream is to see the universe. But, she decided to see the earth first by bicycle. Many people have told her that it's impossible to do so from the beginning; especially because she is a woman travelling alone. Despite the odds, she trusted her dream and herself, and has since cycled through 67 countries in North America, Latin America, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia and South East Asia. And all without going back home for six years! Jin has cycled more than 67,000 kilometres so far
