Saturday morning. Coffee. Honey-loops. Peaches. Coffee. And: exploring! I went to visit Rowne. Rowne is a fashion brand for female clothing, a bit business-like style, founded by Fashionboi Landar and Justice Topaz. You can find some more information and pictures/links to their brand on their own website: rownesl.com (autoplaying music alert!). However, I didn’t go…

Le Botanique
Last week I received a kind invitation from Liara ‘Kemicq’ Okiddo, to come visit her latest project Le Botanique, as she describes : ‘ A rainy day, a moment of Zen, a botanical garden.. Something different and immersive..’ It certainly is a rainy day, in Le Botanique, and very Zen. A lovely, quiet place to…
A return to The Cornfield, but not quite!
This week LL announced their latest feature in SL: ‘ Experience Keys‘. Rather technical and I guess a big step for game developpers in Second Life. I am not a techy and I am not a gamer, so after reading the official announcement..it went way over my head. Yes, lets not forget the only game…
Matoluta Sanctuary
This morning I visited and explored a new and delightful new location: Matoluta Sanctuary, which will have its opening to the public later today, at 10AM SLT. Matoluta Sanctuary is meant for horse-roleplay, and an important part is also to create awareness about the Spanish Colonial Horse, as explained in the welcome notecard: ‘ The…
Preview Hair Fair 2014 (updated!)
Update 12 July: for all direct SLURLs and shops per sim…I will point you to the blog of Sungyoung Jang, who did this already! — Tomorrow, 12th July, the 9th edition of the Hair Fair will open its doors to the public. Four sims filled with….hair-shops! As always the Hair Fair is donating to the…
Canadian Wilderness
Admitting, I have never been to Canada in Real Life, the closest I have been there was road trip in the USA Rocky Mountains including Yellowstone NP and up. So when I visited Canadian Wilderness in Second Life this evening, I think it matched my…..expectations. Mountain ranges around, green forests and wildlife. You can rezz…
Herd of the Wind – UPDATED
Update of this post, on 8 July 2014, after I checked to place today for some more pictures I discovered it was no longer available. I have spoken to Mz Marville, the sim owner and this is what she said: ” The Herdland sim was intended to be a landscaping and roleplay exhibition of western…
Noble goes Dutch – De Vesting
Upon logging in I received a notecard from the Noble-family, announcing the re-vamping of their home sim into : Noble goes Dutch – De Vesting. “De Vesting” is Dutch for “Fortress” and in The Netherlands we have several, well preserved fortresses with characteristic, picturesque, streets and surroundings – often with a wall surrounding the village….
The Green Mire
A week after the dramatic flooding and closure of Mad City, MadPea Productions has opened their new location to the public: The Green Mire. In this dark and humid swamp, you will not only find the MadPea Mainstore but…as almost expected from MadPea: A mystery! As said in the information: ‘Ten years ago, Tony Lamil…
Fashion For Life 2014 – Wanderlust
Today Fashion For Life 2014 opened its ten sims to the public, with a total of 150 stores it is surely one of the biggest events, dedicated to Relay for Life. Now, of course it is wonderful to shop and find exclusive event items, but…I didn’t really go for shopping (yeah, will do that later…lol)…
[Norderney] – A smile is the beginning of Peace
After I saw several gorgeous images on Flickr, taken on [Norderney], I decided to tp over and explore this new, to me, destination. It is owned by Jacky McPherson and she did a wonderful job in landscaping and decorating! What a peaceful, lovely place this is! Whether you enjoy walking around, sitting on the small…
Pigeon Island
Pigeon Island is a wonderful destination for exploring, wandering about and taking pictures. You land in a lush, green, forest and when you follow the path you will soon find yourself on a rocky beach, surrounded by oceans and mountains. In the middle a big rock, on which on top – after a nice long…
The closure of Mad City
Mad City, home of MadPea Productions, startpoint of so many awesome hunts – which I enjoyed so much, in fact…they were the only ‘hunts’ I did in SL , just because of their storylines and not even for the goodies – is closing per 31th May. The reason makes sense, as QueenPea and CEO/founder of…
TitaNawak, Iceberg straight ahead!
Well, for the TitaNawak, a HUGE cruiseship, this warning came too late and it already hit the iceberg… I visited this wonderful place this morning, and even though it’s spring in my RL and temperatures are finally into 2 digits, I could feel the ice cold in France Portnawak. The TitaNawak is tilting over already,…
H220 – ‘Never run in the rain with your socks on’
In between parties on Saturday and of course exploring and taking pics on the 11 sims of the Fantasy Faire…I took the time today to explore a brand new destination, opened 3 May: H220. A watery, rainy sim created by Squonk Levenque and Miuccia Klaar, who also made the wonderful 2304 Rain which I enjoyed…
