Before I went back home to the Philippines in 2011, I brought with these two couples. It is a keepsake souvenir for staying in Tajikistan. I was cleaning my room and saw them wrap in my shoebox. It reminded me to put them into a frame. These two doll-size souvenirs are wearing the traditional clothes in Tajikistan.

@Shavkat you accomplished your mission of helping the children walk while you were there, and it's nice to know that the book you left is still being used as reference by your colleagues to continue helping the children at tajikistan

Lots of memories to keep there for as long as you want and maybe a whole lifetime.

Were you sightseeing there or where you living there for a while? I don't even know where that is. I'd look it up but I'm in the middle of making supper. The frame you'll put them into will it be like a shadow box that you can put on the wall if desired, but dust and dirt won't get in to mar the dolls?
