'I usually look for places with a lot of history or culture. I would take the time to look up the story behind a place when I decide to sketch it,' says KC Lee, pictured with his 88m sketch journal. Photo: The Star/Low Boon Tat

How do you document a life well-lived? Some people like to record their travel adventures and experiences by writing about them in a diary. Others use photographs or scrapbooks full of mementos.
