Summer is coming, not only in real life, but of course also in Second Life – which usually means a lot of locations are turning into beaches and more often than not: tropical. I do not particularly love tropical destinations, so I am always pleasantly surprised to find places to get that summer feeling without…

Butterfly Beach


If you love dreamy beaches, but not the tropical kind, you will love this new place in Secondlife created by Funky Banana : Butterfly Beach. Opened today, this beach is a dream for Second Life explorers and photographers! Butterfly Beach is elegantly landscaped and the decoration is amazing and well thought out, yet not too…

Tillicum Island


Tillicum Island is one of those gorgeous places you could spend all day. I spent some hours exploring and just sitting on the beach, enjoying the view and zooming around – discovering all kinds of lovely details and secluded spots. It is owned by Scott Yedmore (scott1.yedmore) and as he stated in the group description…

The Bay


This weekend a new sim by the lovely and talented landscaper Mz Marville opened its doors to the public: The Bay. (You may know Mz Marville from her beautiful sim Matoluta Bay, but ‘The Bay’ is something quite different). Mz created The Bay in a Pirate themed setting and the sim is rated ‘Adult’, catering…

Thursday Tours : Birdie, Ison and Izzie’s


This week’s revisited locations have one thing in common: they are all three mainstore locations! It is why I love to shop inworld, finding these gorgeous sims when you step out of the shop! All three are very photogenic and ever so lovely, perfect for doing that photoshoot of your newly purchased outfit or skin…

Thursday Tours: Matoluta Bay, Black Basalt Beach and The Green Mire


Back to my Thursday Tours, I so enthusiastically started with and then…two weeks nothing happened! Today I am featuring stunning locations for fotoshoots, three places I frequent a lot because I love them! My first stop this morning was Matoluta Bay, a gorgeous nature sim – by Mz Marville – which has a real feel…

Sleepy Sands


If you are looking for a sunny, happy, place to brighten up your day or mood, than Sleepy Sands is the place to go! Thanks to my friend Cooper, who showed me this lovely tropical paradise, I explored Sleepy Sands, which is the home of Pinkrayne and Sammmyboy and also the home of Pink’s mainstore…

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…

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…

SoCal


This afternoon I was searching for some Catcha Yardsales and to my surprise and delight I ended up on a lovely sim called SoCal, which stands for Southern California I found out.  SoCal is under construction, but already worth a visit as it has a gorgeous beach and some wonderful streets. A nice escape to…

Otium – Leisure and Laziness


When browsing through the Destination Guide my mouse stopped working at the ‘Popular Places’ section, instead of the Photogenic category I was looking for, but..it turned out just great otherwise I would have missed ‘Otium – Leisure and Laziness’! Otium is, according the landinformation, Latin for leisure and laziness and that is what this gorgeous…

Rougham Town – Britannia


Due to several real life events and circumstances I have not been online, nor inworld, for quite some days. But, as a real blogger and SL addict I always have some sort of backlog in what I want to blog about, so even when not being able to login…I can still blog…and OMG, this is…

Sand & Sea Expo


With summer coming, well in SL that is a fact – in RL I am still waiting for a decent Spring- …., I got a sneak preview to the Sand & Sea Expo that will run from 2nd – 5th May! I can use a bit of sand and sea by now! The expo is…

Happiness is liberty


Earlier this week I ended up in a wonderful place, a new entry in the photogenic section of the Destination Guide, with the poetic name: Happiness is Liberty. The sim is tastefully decorated with a bit of everything: a long coastline with a sandy/rocky beach, a magnificent forest where you can easily get lost, field…

It all starts with a smile


One of SL’s best photographers, Kaelyn Alecto (check out her photo-stream on Flickr), recently opened her sim to all, called: It all starts with a smile. And it sure does! The landing-point is in a delightful little street with an ice-cream parlour and a nice view to the beach and sea below. Behind the building…
