Some nights I just want to go to place and take pictures. Images to play around with in Photoshop (I am still learning!). It’s something I enjoy, both being in a cool place and finding objects or angles for a picture and afterwards trying out all kinds of stuff in Photoshop and see if the…

The Valley of the Pondering Eggs
Yes, you read that right: Pondering Eggs. In a valley. That is where I spent my Monday night and it was lovely! The Valley of the Pondering Eggs (A) is an installation by Num Bing-Howlett and Clifton Howlett, the creators of the Empire of Dreaming Books a while ago. The Pondering Eggs are huge, well…eggs….
Mystery Guests, a review of MAEVA Bora Bora
A few weeks ago Dirk Lemon, owner of the The SL Hotel Inspector website, asked me if I would like to do a review of one of Second Life’s luxury holiday resorts. Of course I was more than happy to do this, I love his website and who doesn’t like a vacation! Because a holiday…
A weekend trip to the Lotus Palace Retreat
Going on vacation in Second Life is really a thing. And also a thing I recommend to everyone in need of a few days of safe traveling. And aren’t we all? The other week Huckleberry Hax and I got invited by Ian Garrett (Beric01.resident) to stay the weekend in the new Lotus Palace Retreat. Ian…
Kidaka Resort, our vacation in Second Life
Have you ever been on an all inclusive holiday in Second Life? I haven’t. Well until this week! Huck surprised me with a fancy vacation to a luxury resort, the Kidaka Resort, where he booked a lodge in the wilderness for us. He only told me to pack for ‘safari’ and to take some days…
Don’t we all need a Breath of Nature?
The other night I was exploring and via lots of landmarks I found myself on a gorgeous sim: Breath of Nature. A place I could use in real life as well, specially after 12 weeks of lockdown! I don’t have much to tell today (I am not in a chatty mood), other than you will…
Endless on a Sunday morning
The snow has melted, the sun is out and I just got home from a lovely, long, walk with my dogs, my idea of a perfect start of a relaxed Sunday! The dogs have eaten and are taking their morning nap, so I went for some more walking; in Second Life! This walk is as…
The Ruins of Deepmarsh
Sometimes all I want to do, when logging into Second Life, is go to a pretty place and take pictures. Just wandering about or sit somewhere and look around, listening to some good music and enjoy the scenery. That is what I did tonight. Real life has been hectic all week and in The Ruins…
Holiday Trace
To my delight Kylie Jaxxon has once again created a version of her wellknown and much loved The Trace. This time it is called Holiday Trace, and when I saw the announcement on Flickr that it would open soon, I was counting the days to go see it! Today it opened and it is without…
Follow your Bliss
After a day of work, I can always really look forward to logging in and either catch up with friends, shop or explore locations and take pictures. Todays RL work was not too bad and I had quite a productive day, so I allowed myself to log in a bit earlier than usual. I’ve seen…
Daydreaming in Everlong
Today I explored a watery, dreamy, location called: Everlong. Filled with wonderfully decorated spots, this is certainly a place to find yourself a comfy chair (plenty of those!) and enjoy the environment.
Sorrow
Sorrow, a wonderful – lonely but peaceful – place. Simple, and demonstrating that less is indeed more!
The Red Hot Chilli Pipers
Last night my friend Pepys invited me to a performance of the tribute band he plays in, in Second Life, and well why not!
Topless Sailors, cruising around the ocean
The other week my friend Pepys wanted to cheer me up a bit and said he would take me out for the evening. Well, that got me all excited of course, not being used to that often, so when he told me to be ready at 11AM ..I was! All dressed up pretty and looking…
Lost Dream
Lost Dreams, or Les Reves Perdu as it is also called, is a delightful place and lovely to spend some hours exploring, taking pictures and enjoying the playful decorations and landscaping. Not sure where the name comes from, or refers to as this place is certainly not a lost dream!
Tuck’s Misty Isles
A while ago I was on Tuck’s Mistly Isles, for some photoshoots, and promised myself to come back and blog about this magical place. This morning I remembered, when going through some older pictures and decided to hope over and take the time.
