## Doll Description

*"SAYA" is a girl that has been living in Holland since she was three years old. She was born in Surinam and is now nine years old. Her family came from India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Surinam. She has an effect on me being very delicate and beautiful due to her slightly wrinkled forehead and her big eyes. She is something very special. Her clothes, that suit her perfectly, originate from a village in Nepal. SAYA is just a beautiful creation.*
