My Mother
My mom, Yuko Shimomura (Ueno, before marrying my dad) was born in Kamakura on September 29th 1961. All of her childhood life, she lived in Kamakura. First time she moved, she went to Seattle to study. That was when she was 28 years old, in1989. She then went back to Kamakura after her studies finished, which was in 1990. She went back to Seattle for her job this time from 1991. She met my dad there in Seattle. After marrying my dad, she then moved with him to Panama (1994) and Hong Kong (1994). July 25th 1996, I was born in Hong Kong. Then in 2003, we all moved back to Japan and started living in Yokohama.
