Pullip and the Great Outdoors

We enjoy bringing our dolls outdoors for photoshoots. Initially we felt awkward and were conscious of people looking/staring. But now we are used to it!

At Sentosa Flowers 2009


Punggol Beach


Heart of Singapore's rat race. Can you guess where? ;)


Groups of friends will organise doll gatherings to catch up on the latest dolly news and take photos of dolls together.

Gang gathering(!!) at Marina Barrage


Some Filipino friends visited Singapore with their dolls, and we organised a gathering at Sentosa.



As Singapore is so small, we run out of interesting places to bring our dolls to. When we go overseas for holidays we'll bring alone a doll too!

At Tokyo Disney Resort. Lurve the Christmas decor!

While taking this shot, some Japanese schoolgirls were looking and said "Kawaii!!"


Climbing up Mt. Takao (高尾山)


Attending a Pullip Doll Carnival in Tokyo. Coincidentally, a Flickr friend from Spain was there too. (The left doll is hers.) We recognised each other by our dolls. How awesome is that?!


We arranged to meet again at Ueno Park. We only brought 1 doll when we travel. She brought so many!


It's really great to have friends who are into the same hobbies!
