Cica Ghost’s ‘Forest’: A monochrome wilderness
Cica Ghost’s art installations never disappoint me, and her latest creation, Forest, is no exception. While it doesn’t directly refer to the upcoming “spooky season,” it certainly evokes the kind of eerie atmosphere that makes you think of it. Forest is a monochrome wonderland. As the name suggests, the installation centers around a forest,…

My Guilty Pleasure
One of my guilty pleasures in Second Life is visiting the Helios Casino & Lounge to unwind with a few rounds on the poker machine—specifically, the Jacks or Better game. Okay, I admit, sometimes it’s more than just a few rounds. I also have a soft spot for the slot machines, especially the one featuring…
Where have I been, where should you?
WordPress sent me some sad messages about the poor state of this blog. And yeah, I know….I have been neglecting this site. Sorry, Site! Not blogging here, doesn’t mean I have not been in Second Life. On the contrary, I am actually quite busy! With all the good stuff. Like Mentoring new residents at the…

A tropical beach, cool Norway and scary jellyfish…
In the words of the famous Dutch football player Johan Cruyff, “Every disadvantage has its advantage. Just last month, a mere 10 minutes after the Fantasy Faire opened, my trusty old PC decided to crash and burn. Although the timing was far from ideal, considering its nearly 12-year lifespan it was actually quite remarkable that…
Fantasy Plant Lovers Unite!
Originally posted on Fantasy Faire:
As an avid lover of plants, I find myself drawn to them both in real life and in Second Life. Whenever I start decorating my virtual home, the first thing I do is gather all the plants and trees that I’ve collected over the years and add them to my…

Meanwhile in Lunarville…
Welcome to the year 2052, where Planet Earth is suffering from a dire state. Meanwhile, the ultra-rich have migrated to the moon, specifically to a place called Lunarville. However, only a select 1% of them apparently managed to secure a spot in this exclusive lunar community. Lunarville is a funny and unique destination with a…

While there are many regions I have yet to explore, and new ones added weekly, I couldn’t resist revisiting three particular regions that left a lasting impression on me in the past weeks. Different in themes, but all three worth a (re) visit and great for taking pics. Buddha Garden, pictured above, is part of…
