Got Blog! Cait’s World


I am participating in the Got Blog! Bloggers Challenge, by Sasy Scarbourough and Gorgeous Aurelia (Juicybomb). You can find more information on this at Got Blog! Bloggers Challenge. Participating in a challenge for (aspiring) Second Life bloggers sounds like a fun and exciting idea! Although the challenge and its questions are primarily aimed at fashion…

The Great 2023 Trick or Treat & The Official Halloween Video Contest


Halloween in Second Life is a huge thing, and there’s no escaping the haunting atmosphere that sweeps across the grid. Pumpkins, scarecrows, zombies, eerie cornfields, and skeletons seem to materialize everywhere you look, and as the weeks roll on, you might find yourself yearning for a change of scenery, perhaps even hoping for snow-covered landscapes…

My ‘come back’, though I never left


What’s up with the title of this post, you might ask? Well, I have been on a blogging hiatus for a long time. But I never left Second Life. In fact, I have been quite active in that awesome virtual world! The thing is, some 5 years ago I thought I needed glasses, which was…

There goes the neighbourhood!


This week I moved into a new Lindenhome, a brandnew Fantasy Home! Because I am an Elf after all, and it was about time I got myself a real Elf-worthy house. My new home is situated on a lovely spot, next to a canal and a bridge, which gives it a sort of private feel….

FOURTEEN


What a surprise! Today I received a festive email from Second Life, congratulating me with my 14th rezday. Somehow I had totally forgotten about it, but they are right. I am 14 years old today! Oh the things I’ve seen and one in those years…sigh… And of course I hope to see and do lots…

#TellMeWithoutTellingMe


Since a few weeks I’ve seen several challenges on social media with the hashtag #TellMeWithoutTellingMe. Mostly on Facebook and Twitter, challenging you to tell in what country you live or what you do for a living, without saying the name of said country or profession. I love these kind of challenges and thought it would…

Tufted Velvet – never goes out of style


(advertorial) After summer, it is time to go back inside and make my home ready for autumn and winter. And no, I am not even thinking about decorating for Halloween – nor do I feel the need to use the typical fall colours, yet! Perhaps that changes in a few weeks, but for now I…

2019: Exploring, Parties, Fantasy Faire and Stömol!


Two days left of this decade! And as it goes, there are a lot of shows on television looking back at 2019 – so I got some inspiration to look back at my 2019 too! I have not been that active in blogging, not at all even…but that doesn’t mean I have not been in…

My ‘Belli Houseboat’


A few months ago, I think once they got released, I switched from my old Linden Home to a brandnew houseboat on the Bellisseria Continent. Just because I could! While I usually live on my mainland parcel, which I own since 2011, it is nice to have a pied a terre somewhere else, if only…

My N00b moment and Tralala’s Diner


This morning, after some shopping, I was unpacking my new purchases in peace and quiet, a disaster happened. I am not sure what I did, but all of a sudden my screen was brownish and I could not zoom back to the normal view. I tried to reset the camera position, but it seemed I…

Huckleberry Hax – AFK, all of it


Two weeks ago, on 16 March, Secondlife Author Huckleberry Hax published his 5 detective novels in the AFK series combined into one, 740 page book. This publication marked the closure of his series and of course this was celebrated with a launchparty in Huck’s Stoshchuckles Bar in the Nancy Redgrave Building. Huck asked me to…

Time for a new skyhome!


While I liked my skyhome as it was, I also felt the need to change it. Just because I can! I had been looking at all kinds of buildings the past month, but when my friend Huckleberry Hax showed me his latest creation, Dragonfly, I knew I found my new house! The moment it was…

2017, my Second Life year in pictures


With just a few days left before we enter a new year, I got a bit nostalgic and scrolled down my Flickr stream to have a look back. While 2017 has not been a particularly great year for some months, it is never a problem to find the good stuff that happened, the great places…

Christmas surprises


So I was going to write a Christmas blogpost, with all kinds of well wishes, looking back at 2017 and looking forward to 2018. But real life chores kept me busy (amongst other excuses) and when I finally had the time to login and sat for it, I got distracted. In a good way. No,…

Two Jacks and a Queen


It is a lot of fun to come up with pictures for my Paper Crown series, and everyday I am looking forward to think of something. The past week though I have been too busy in Real Life and have not had the time to log in, so there is a bit of a gap…

Paper Crown Queen


Last night King Huckleberry Hax,  who has reigned the past month as Paper Crown King, passed on the crown to me. OMG. I am a Queen now! The ceremony of the Passing of the Paper Crown was in a small setting, rather intimate and sweet. Well, OK. Huck showed up with music, wearing a (fullbright,…
