““No,” he said. “There’s a fluctuation in my psyche. I can sleep on the floor for a month at a time — and I have — and I can travel on the back of a motorbike or a horse or a donkey, and I can sleep in a tent, and I cannot wash for two months, but then I come back and I’ll come in and I’ll sit here and I’ll have white napkins and a nice fizzy drink.””

After learning to sail an optimist at age 8 at the local Changi Sailing Club in Singapore & single handedly sailing to Pulau Ubin and back ( a measly 3 mile total ) - On a completely unrelated note, Tzen has decided to embark on the grand expedition of circumnavigating the world's oceans. Over a course of 10 months, she will be racing 40, 000 miles across 4 oceans & 6 continents on a 70 foot yacht with 20 crew, calling at 14 ports with Team Unicef. Hoping on seeing you somewhere around the world, collaborating and making things happen.
