Saying "Hi" ♡

Feb 10, 2025

    1. (English is not my first language, so I apologize in advance for any mistakes. Will try to fix it before posting and try my best in general ♡)

      Hi! I'm Sophie! I turn 23 in March of this year.
      I got my first bjd when I was 9 years old (it was Orientdoll Tae, he is still with me), and since then wanted to involve myself with bjd world, but couldn't. My mature journey into bjd started with a friend of family passing - she was a bjd collector for many years, and my mom bought my first doll from her. I started looking into topic from russian authors and then local legit/original bjd community, but now I want to broaden my horizons and dive deeper in my investigations, that's why I'm here. I already own several dolls (mostly bought from other owners; after cheking authenticity, of course) Did different researches on old molds, many links lead me to DoA, so decided it's time to try joining!

      Thank you! Hope you have a good day (or normal at least ♡)
      P.S. Will be glad to meet new people of course! Some social networks don't work for me after 2022 sadly :( But I will be happy to keep in touch on DoA!

    2. Hi! How fun that you've been in the hobby since you were a kid :) And that your first doll was connected to a family friend.

    3. Hi! Welcome!
      I love getting used dolls and giving them new homes as well! A few of my dolls are also from previous owners.

    4. That's awesome that you got into it at such a young age and it's cool that your mom was supportive of your collecting too. :)
