Spanish Wells, for art and sports


One of the sports, aside from my years of katanafighting, in SL that I really enjoy doing is surfing. It’s fun, it looks great and important: it’s not that difficult. On most surf-beaches you can also get a free surfboard to use, so it’s really something everyone can try. When I read Ziki‘s and Inara‘s…

Kittens Heaven, episode 4!


(Update 27 April: Kittens Heaven is now open to all!) Two weeks ago Isabelli Anatine told me she, once again, was building a new Kittens Heaven! I have always enjoyed the previous ones, and blogged about it in November 2012, March 2013 and August 2013. Kittens Heaven will, as it used to be, a chill…

Santaurio


A few days ago I received a notice from Jac Mornington and Romy Rosea that they have sold and handed over their lovely sim Baja Norte to Lauren Bentham, who will continue this wonderful beach for all to enjoy (you may want to join the new group for Baja Norte if you want rezz rights)….

Pino, Blue Beach


This afternoon I have spent on Pino, Blue Beach, exploring and hanging around. There is a lot to do and see, so a perfect location when you are in the mood for some wandering about, dancing, relaxing in the hot tub or just sitting on the beach watching the waves roll in and out! I…

Celebrity Hangout, Easter style


So. I am having a bit of ‘the Meh’ this week. Since Sunday my machine decided to hate Firestorm, something I have had with a previous release last year as well: I cannot take high resolution pics when in high or ultra graphics. The moment I hit the snapshot button I crash, with the lovely…

Grimmrfell


Today I saw a new location in the Destionation Guide, Grimmrfell, and decided to check it out. Grimmrfell is a Norse/Viking Roleplay sim (Adult), and as with all RP sims rules do apply. In this case I was led to their official website and learned that this Grimmrfell is not only to be found in…

Amazon River


Yesterday I spent some time exploring Amazon River (Adult), a – as the name already suggests – jungle with the river Amazon meandering through. Amazon River is a roleplay sim, but this is optional and not mandatory. On the landingpoint you will find several signs, group joiners, for each role. You can choose to play…

* Frisland * – A preview


Last night I was delighted to receive an invitation to visit a brand new location *Frisland*, a project by Charlie Namiboo, Anna Barzane and Frislanda Ferraris, which will soon be opened to the public, but is now open for preview for bloggers/photographers. The invitation came with a notecard, with some background on the how and…

Przystan


This evening I followed the trail of Kylie Jaxxon to Przystan, after I saw her wonderful photo’s on Flickr in the ‘Explore Second Life Group’. A group you may want to follow too, if you don’t already, as it is a great source for finding amazing locations to explore! Przystan, as far as I understood,…

Little Village by Cica Ghost


‘The quirky homes in Cica Ghost’s Little Village stand tilted on little hillocks, some single, some in little clusters, their shapes silhouetted against the sepia sky. It is a village for people, or only for the cats peeking out from the windows ?’ This is the information given about Cica Ghost’s latest art installation: Little…

Veronica Lake


Yesterday Veronicalynn Parx pointed me to her facebookpage for her sim Veronica Lake, a residential sim on which she has parcels available for rent. Now I am not looking for a parcel or a new home, but the pictures she posted caught my attention and I ran off to have a look! Besides it being…

Metropolis


Spring arrived with a big bang here in Holland, the other night it was below zero…and this weekend temperatures went sky-high, well for us Dutch, up to 20 degrees C. Now, I know this is not ‘hot’ but for our little country this is a record and very extra ordinary – snow and ice would…

The Trace – Spring 2014


Ever since Kylie Jaxxon opened her home, The Trace, in May 2013 it has been one of my favourite locations in Second Life. To hang out, for taking pictures and everytime I go there I discover something new! This week Kylie has worked hard to transfer the Trace from Winter to Spring and when I…

A goodbye to Dryland


Sometimes I seem to completely miss pictures on Flickr, of people I follow. I have no idea how that happens! It is why I only saw this morning this picture by Anita Witt, announcing the closing down of her beloved sim “Dryland“. I have, over the years, visited Dryland quite often as it is a…
