I had my breakfast in Japan this morning! I visited The Koto Project, a well designed Japanese Roleplay sim, situated in the Edo Period. Although for roleplay, and they do have rules (read them, a notecard is provided upon arrival), visitors are welcome and as far as I could find in the rules there is…

..with love in her heart..
What’s in a name? In this case, I really love the name of the place I visited today: ..with love in her heart.. on a sim called ‘Sounds of Silence’. Made me smile! With love in her heart is a rural sim, with farms, barns, some cattle and wonderfully landscaped Not too much and not…
Lost Island – Bastet’s Paradise
Often I use the Destination Guide to see what is new in SL, and today one of the highlights on my dashboard caught enough attention to TP over and have a look: The Lost Island. Now, I also saw a comment added in the DG’s entry (one can share, comment, like and all that via…
The Sea of Cubic Dreams
Last Saturday The Sea of Cubic Dreams opened, a wonderful art installation by Alegria Studio on LEA25. I had seen some preview pictures already and was keen to visit as soon as it was open! The Sea of Cubic Dreams is the first stage of a larger project ‘Theater Night’s Dream’ which is still in…
Sarawak
Sarawak is the home sim of the lovely, and very talented SL Photographer!, Ermandalee and it has been on my list to visit for way too long! This afternoon, I finally took the time and was happy I did! I had seen so many awesome pictures of this gorgeous, rural, place on flickr (there is…
Taka No Sakura
In between horsing around, helping Ratt getting a new look and doing pics with Coober, I also did some exploring! Busy busy eh! A few days ago I visited Taka No Sakura SLURL, a wonderful Japanese themed sim with some gorgeous spots! I particularly love the Bamboo Forest with soft lightbeams, so relaxing! Very much…
The Colder Water
After seeing Ziki‘s pictures and blogpost on a new place: The Colder Water, I decided to follow her and went to check this sim out. The Colder Water is a gorgeous, somewhat dark, place with 3 lighthouses and most striking: black sand on the beaches and dark rocks. Not your average tropical destination, but that…
Terraform Me
No. You cannot terraform me…..:P Terraform Me is the name of a LL-owned region, next to Linden Estate Services 4, and both sims are amazingly terraformed. A wonderful example of artsy fartsy landscaping, which makes it perfect places for unreal photoshoots if you take the time to fiddle with windlights and shadows :). When you…
Destination Unknown
Do you know that feeling of just..wanting to run away? Escape? Pack one bag and just leave everything behind, without knowing where you will go? I have that sometimes. For all kind of practicalities, and me being a coward as well, I have never gotten to do this in real life. But then..there is Second…
Garlic Breath
I love Garlic! I do, however, not particularly like a garlic breath..but there are mints for that… This blogpost is not about food though, Garlic Breath is the name of a delightful, Mediterranean, destination, its full name being: Garlic Breath at Melee Island. On top of the rocks you will find lovely little houses, in…
Rowne
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…
