Domo does London, 2007-09
One day Domo hatched from an envelope sent from Japan!
Like any good tourist Domo quickly sought out London's famous landmarks.
Horseguards are a must-have in any tourist photo album...but not without risk.
Domo strikes a daring pose.
...ooops...
After being rescued domo gives an interview.
We are getting ready for work...
...as you can see the dress code even for the toilets is very strict...
...but the conference was very boring.
Domo has his own fashion line.
And trades Japanese Yen.
Because even Domo lives in financial times.
Domo's hobbies include breakdancing on the Southbank...
...sitting on sand sofas, and...
Skating!, and...
...skating where it is not allowed, like here...
...and here.
Domo found Nemo!
But got lost in IKEA. (so he claims - I think it was an orgy.)
Domo likes to hide.
Where is Domo? With the cookies!
Domo ordered a winter dress.
Voila! Domo lost the left mitten half-way through winter. Big drama.
The new dress is being stress-tested. Passed.
Domo on a model assignment in Paris.
Paris is almost as pretty as Tokyo.
Haute Couture, very Rive Gauche, by his favourite bulgarian designer.
One day something strange happened... Domo turned to chocolate.
Domo is a spoilt brat.
And because Domo is so great, he has his own statue.
And now Domo sends some postcards home to tell all his friends about his adventures.
"Domo does London"
(2007-09)
Domo says: "Ui, ui, ui"*
* translation: "i'm Domo, from Tokyo, Japan. I have brown fur because i eat a lot of chocolate. I also like TV and skateboarding. I am currently on a holiday in London, sightseeing and doing touristy things. While there, i am staying with Andreas who has volunteered to take photos of my adventures. He doesn't speak much Japanese, so our communication is limited, but people usually understand me anyhow. I travel in his pocket most of the time, when he is working the office i usually sleep in his desk drawer and wake up at lunchtime when he will feed me sushi.
My visa has recently been extended, but hopefully Andreas will take me to other exotic places soon, too."
Andreas says: "Domo and i go way back and when he told me that he was coming over for a visit from Japan it was clear that i would offer Domo free accommodation. He doesn't take up much space, but eats a lot and demands constant attention and being photographed."
