Hello, my name is Kazuaki Shimokawa. You'll find it a little bit difficult to pronounce, but it's ok to call me Kazu. I am 21 years old and my hometown is Osaka, Japan. It's the second largest city in Japan followed by Toky, where you probably know the name. I stay at Augustana College through exchange program of my original college where I major English studies and have focused on translation studies among all. Now I am enjoying my study abroad here in U.S. meeting new people, touching with different cultures.
