In the spirit of winter I visited Syzygy (what’s in a name?), a 5 sim region completely turned into a Winter Wonderland, but then….different than so many I have seen the past weeks! Of course there is snow and frozen lakes & waterfalls, but the decoration is less ‘Christmassy’ and does not feel so overdone…

Winterfest: Cross Country Skiing
Snow…although I had have a bit of enough of it in RL, I felt like a nice winteractivity in Second Life tonight! So I teleported to the 8 Winterfest sims and looked around for something I wanted to do. You can do all sort of things, the choice is huge! Sleighriding, skating, horse riding and…..Cross…
Steelhead Steampunk
If you are into 19th century Steampunk…..The Steelhead sims (seven!) are the place to go! Amazing builds, great atmosphere and you can fly around in all privacy (well..I was all alone there, but maybe my timing was wrong?). It’s a great place to explore and take some nice pictures! I tried to read my future…
Isaac Newton’s Cannon to Orbit
Not sure how seriously scientific this place is, but it sure is fun: The Exploratorium! It’s a globe with a canon installation on top…you can sit on the cannonball and orbit yourself around the world, in a speed of your choice (menu pops up)! I shot myself into orbit a couple of times, but I…
Mysterious Pteron
On one of my travels, I discovered a mysterious place called Pteron. A blue/green city with many chambers and plateaus. I enjoyed exploring this mystic build, while listening to their stream playing relaxing (almost out of this world) music…I had my settings on midnight and was amazed.. There are some danceballs for couples and some…
Sharp blades & and a Lunar Adventure..
Last night was long but good! Went to bed waaaayyyy past my bedtime, but I was having so much fun online….it was impossible to log off! It was lovely to see some new members in our dojo, all eager to practice and doingtheir best to improve the new learned skills! Made me remember how hard…
Bentham Forest
Nothing better to lighten up my day than a visit to Bentham Forest. A surreal, colourful and above all enchanting place, built by Lauren Bentham. In this case, I have nothing to describe or tell…you should just go there and see for yourself, enjoy!
Virtual calories
No matter how active Cait is, she is never hungry….and never needs food to keep the energy going! Still, food in Second Life is fun. And in some cases beautiful even! I stumbled across a lovely tea-room on a nice sim, Nonino Sweets. mouth-watering cakes and donuts for display, really well made. The environment is…
Walking on the Moon
Giant steps are what you take Walking on the moon I hope my legs don’t break Walking on the moon We could walk for ever Walking on the moon We could live together Walking on, walking on the moon The Police – Walking on the Moon Listening to some old songs, I used to be…
03 – REZ
One of my favourite places, am surprised at myself I never wrote about it before, is 03. It’s a floating island, icy and snowy and very white and bright! It’s mysterious is a weird way, and I still have no idea what the purpose is…but then again, why should there be a purpose! I just…
Off The Wall
I was in need for a colourful distraction this morning…something different, something epic! So I browsed through the Destination Guide (my SL Travel Bible!) and teleported to a place called ‘Off The Wall’. It is colourful indeed and very weird, but I love it! It’s unlike so many places that are build to recreate a…
Guy Fawkes Day
Nope. I am not English, but Dutch. However, I am in the UK a lot and have some close friends from that funny island as well, therefore I do know about Guy Fawkes Day (and I know he once fought against the Dutch with the Spanish..tsk!) On the 5th of November it’s Guy Fawkes Day,…
The Corn Field
“The Corn Field is a region of Mythological status where once naughty avatars were sent to think about what they had done. The Corn Field is a vast star-lit field of corn and was cut off from communication with the rest of the world. A reference to the classic Twilight Zone episode ‘It’s a good…
Sunday – Burn 2.0
Sadly I missed the grand opening of Burn 2.0 yesterday, but this morning I took the time to pay this wonderful festival a visit! It’s amazing, as every year. Laggy too yes, but that’s inevitable for events this size ;). I walked and flew around and saw some really impressive builds! The atmosphere of the…
The Forum Cartel Home Tour – 2010
This year I submitted ImperiuM Island as ‘ Open Home’ in the 2nd Annual Forum Cartel Home Tour. This initiative, by Joshooah Lovenkraft, gives members (and all resident of SL for that matter) a chance to take a look into people’s homes and sims. Some of those homes are normally closed to public the rest…
Never Neverland
Looking for a sweet and surprising place to go with some friends or a lover? I would certainly recommend Never Neverland! A wonderful green place, filled with colorful mushroom and intan couple dances all over. Amazing moonbeams and bubbles, a must-see in midnightsettings! This is just one of those rare places that can turn your…
