Field Trip - Aomori

POSTED BY DANNY CHOO On Sun 2023/03/05 17:27 JST

While we plan a variety of field trips throughout the year, we only manage to gather the entire team once annually.

However, even when not all team members are able to attend, we still go ahead with the trips, which are an important part of our work and play culture.
These trips also allow us to field test our products and see how well our Smart Dolls stand up against the elements. Most recently, we headed to Aomori in Northern Japan to play in the winter wonderland.


Aomori is a prefecture located in the northern part of Honshu, the main island of Japan. It is known for its natural beauty, particularly in the winter months when snow covers the landscape and creates a picturesque winter wonderland.

This time we spent time around the Oirase Gorge and Mount Hakkoda - some of us exploring the terrain while some went for a round of snowboarding.

There was one thing I learned from this trip - our girls need more water-resistant wear - and snowboard gear too ;-)

This time I took Forty and Courage - the gray skin tone looks so good in the snow!
