My life in weeks

2,295 weeks, and counting.

Naresh Kumar

Hi, I’m Naresh. This is a map of my life, where each week I’ve been alive is a little box, starting with the week I was born in Chennai. The weeks with words are the ones I want to keep. Tap one to read it. The idea comes from Tim Urban, who once drew a whole life as a page of boxes, one for every week. Seeing mine laid out like that changed how I spend them.
