Mark Wiens’s Family, personal life, parents, educational background, etc.

A popular figure in the culinary world, Mark Wiens was born to an American dad and a Chinese mom on February 26, 1986. Standing at 6.1ft and weighing 64 kg, Mark is a successful author, YouTuber, and blogger. Although he was born in America, his parents were missionaries, and the family traveled a lot.

When Mark was just five years old, the family moved to Albertville in France and then to DRC, Africa, a few years later. Living in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Mark says, laid a foundation for experiencing new friendships, culture, and food. The family moved again to Nairobi, Kenya’s capital city, where Mark lived till his graduation from high school. After his graduation, he returned to America and enrolled in Arizona State University, earning a Global Studies degree.

With his savings from his university days and a hunger to experience new food, places, and culture, Mark flew to South America- Buenos Aires, to be precise. There he earned a TESOL certificate, a course to teach English, and continued touring other countries before coming back to America.

Overwhelmed with the adventures overseas, he began a blog to share his experiences with friends and family when he realized that the blog has the potential for more than just musings.

However, without a clue about what he wanted to do, he hit the road again. He took a one-way ticket to Bangkok, taught English, toured places in South East Asia, and published an e-book on Thai food. He also met Ying- a great cook, traveler, and fellow food enthusiast, who fell in love and then married her in July 2013. The couple has a son, and they often travel a lot, making food videos and creating content for his YouTube channel and blog.

How did he begin his career?

Mark began his career as an English teacher in Bangkok. However, he could not enjoy the profession and invested most of his time writing about food which he later published. 

As a food enthusiast, he realized that his hard drives were full of Thai food pictures and decided to start a food blog.  Mark and his friend Dwight Turner, who shared his enthusiasm for Thai food, collaborated and set up the blog eatingthaifood.com. The blog was a considerable success. And soon, he started another blog called migrationology.com to provide a travel guide to the best places for eating the best local delicacies, places to stay, things to do, etc.

He also published numerous books on food, including Hong Kong Travel Guide for Food Lovers, 101 Things to do in Bangkok, and The Ultimate Eating Thai Food Guide. Mark’s career as a blogger and author flourished, and he began to earn good money. However, he is best known as a YouTube star than a writer.

After incredible success as an author and blogger, Mark decided that he wanted to share more than just information and food pictures. He wanted to share the warm emotions and the excellent food environment, which wasn’t possible through blogs and photographs alone.

His short and simple videos of street food soon became more than a hobby. He ventured into vlogging and began a food channel on YouTube and has never had to turn back since. His vibrant personality adds to the entertaining and informational videos that he posts twice a week, making his viewers eagerly anticipate the following video.
