## About
Fae's journey of being a non-binary, trans femme in Japan. 🇯🇵

> ## Update
As I am leaving Japan June 2026, I will stop updating this blog. If you'd like to stay updated, feel free to follow me on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/zapthecactus) or my new blog on [ZaptheCactus](https://ztc.tinydot.com).

I started this blog to document my journey and to provide others resources for their transition, specifically in Japan.

It can be a tough road to follow, but we’re not alone. There are lots of people and resources out there to help make the journey easier.
