Hi, I’m Khat (キャット), based between Hokkaido, Japan and KL, Malaysia. While my writings often focus on art and the esoteric realm, my main interests lie in storytelling, music, and the crystallisation of snowflakes.

My full name is Khadijah Mirzan.

I’m orginally from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, but grew up in the UK
and the East Coast of the USA. .

Hope you have an ethereal day!

私のフルネームはカティジャーミラザンです。

私はマレーシアのクアラルンプール出身ですが、
イギリスとアメリカの東海岸で育ちました。
