Long roads, small moments, and the weeks in between.
A week at a time. Make each one count.
I’m Naresh. I was born in Chennai, I live in St. Louis, Missouri, and I spend my weeks on long roads, at the stove, with books, and with my wife and our daughter, Mahi.
This blog is how I make my weeks count, and how I keep them.
Stories from the road on foot and by bike, races, the first sunrise of every year, and the world as Mahi shows it to me. Some posts are long. Most are short.
