On one of my travels I found a lovely small square, surrounded by little shops selling furniture (home & hobby), clothing (dressed), teddy bears (cookie bears) and animations (swAyNimations) called: SwayLand. I found out all shops are from the same creator, Sway Dench, who really makes lovely and original creations of all sorts! I had…

Come fly with me…
Fever got me and it’s bad. A flu without having a cold. I am miserable and not in the mood for fighting. Or te be in world a lot. Anyway! To cheer myself up I transformed into an Elf. A pink one, of course! I kind of liked running around as the Christmas Elf the…
1000 Avatars – by Gracie Kendal
When browsing the Destination Guide (well, actually I was checking if the ImperiuM is still in there and yeah, we are) I found an interesting art project : 1000 Avatars, a project by Gracie Kendal. Gracie Kendal is an avatar, and in RL she is an artist (Kristine Schomaker). Read all about her on her…
Les Miserables
“We do not claim that the portrait we present here is a true one, only that it comes close“ Once upon a time, when I was young and innocent *cough*, I wanted to become a teacher and studied French (and English). I always loved reading books, still do, and for my study I had to…
Chocolate and Ice
One of the nicest combinations: ice and chocolate…In Risk City, you will find both, but in a way one would not expect! At the landingpoint, you will find a teleporter which brings you to themed Globes. I visited two of them, an Icey one and a Globe filled with Chocolate! W00t! It’s…
Pixelfashion – Size matters!
Yesterday afternoon, when flying around a bit, I ended up at Pixelfashion. Usually a shop in which one can find sexy outfits (for men and women). It is still a shop, but wow…did they do some Christmas decorations! It’s amazing and ….HUGE! Their sim is covered in a pile of enormous Christmas presents, a giant…
Syzygy’s Ice Beach
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…
Greenburg in winter
Ah yes, Greenburg. Without a doubt one of my favourite places! I have blogged about it before, the lush green lagunes, the dances, the floating islands, the fantasy creatures that roam around the sim…wonderful! I was pleasantly surprised this afternoon to discover that Greenburg has turned into a magical Wintersim…so lovely! Now I only wish…
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…
Wasabi Pills – Fantasy hair
After some spars with Ratt, followed by a nice training session with Dreadfal (yay, he is on his way to the jumpslash!), I made myself another coffee and went to Wasabi Pills. This is a hairshop, what else is new on my Saturday mornings, where you can try out demo-hair for free. Now, this is…
Try before you die: The Damned Zombie Outbreak
Most people who know me, know I do not like games involving guns and shooting. Odd, yes. As the katana I use daily is also a weapon, and technically it shoots too. Anyway, guns and Cait have never been a good combination. However! In the spirit of ‘Try Before you Die’ I teleported myself to…
Standby
‘Standby’ is the name of an installation made by the famous (if I may say so) Bryn Oh, whose work I always admire! Standby is located on the IBM sim and, as usual for Bryn, a surrealistic build. Just amazingly detailed and confusing ;). Somewhere on the floor you will find a perkament paper which…
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…
Winterfashion – DeLa
Yeah, in Second Life it does not have to be winter and cold! Unlike real life, you can walk around in bikini or summer dresses all year round.. However, I do like to dress a bit according to the real life seasons. Not always and not all the way, it would be boring! At the…
