THERE'S NO BAD WEATHER

If, then there's only rainbow weather

Sometimes the sun takes a break! It would be boring if it didn't. Nature needs the rain so that we can enjoy the beautiful greenery. And in the rain, the green is even greener! If you don't want to do an outdoor programme, there are many ways to have a good time on dry feet!

Each doll is unique and tells a different story about the country and its people. Look forward to touching moments with a lot of love for detail and life!
