Why I keep it solo

The site started as a place to keep information I was tired of finding from scratch. Family and friends kept asking the same questions, so I made it public.

There is no editorial desk or outside writing team. If something on the site is wrong, it is my job to check it and fix it.

How an article comes together

Each article starts with a practical question: what to bring to an appointment, whether a rule is still current, or how to get somewhere without wasting a trip.

For procedures and public rules, I start with the responsible agency or operator. I cross-check shops, transport, and prices elsewhere. If I cannot verify something, I leave it out.

AI tools produce first drafts and translations; I set the direction, decide what stays, and finish every piece. Before publishing, I open each cited link to confirm it is the document named and that it supports the text, and I check dates, figures, and quotations against their sources again.

Chinese is the main edition. The Japanese and English versions are rewritten for their readers rather than copied line by line.

Updates and corrections

Articles keep their publication and update dates. When a rule changes, I check it again. When something is wrong, I correct it.

If you have a newer official notice or have seen a change on the ground, send the article title and source through the contact page. Factual corrections come first.
