Last night my friends and I finally got together for an evening of chatting again! Instead of going out for some exploring or sportive activity as we had done the previous time, I invited Kerena, Becky, Ylva and Kahleesi over to my humble home for some wine and snacks. Sometimes that is all you need,…

Thursday Tours: Pigeon Island, Sarawak and Sunny Fields
Thursday, so time to check some places I have blogged about in the past to see if they are still around…and to make new pics and feature them in my Thursday Tours! I started my tour on Pigeon Island, a wonderful place with green forests and surrounded by the sea and mountain ranges. Perfect for…
Thursday Tours: Frisland, The Trace and Binemist
Every now and then, well actually quite often but I try to be modest, I get questions as ‘what is a nice sim for pics‘, or ‘ Do you know where I can do such and such photoshoot‘. The worst question is always: ‘what is your favourite place‘ , because I have so many and…
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…
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…
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…
Behind the scenes of Paradise Lost – Trailer Trouble
‘It has been some weeks since my last visit to the studio’s of Paradise Lost, but yesterday I got an IM from Becky and Harvey inviting me over for a “Meet & Greet” with the actors who play God and Satan, during one of their breaks (or as Harvey sighed ‘one of their MANY, MANY…
The Millhouse Cafe and Parkland
Although I have a blogpost ready about one of the new, popular destinations…I decided to keep that for a next post and choose something else for today! It is not always about full sims or places filled with the latest trends in building and landscaping, I often find my pleasure and joy in discovering and…
Tempelhof Hafen
The past days I have been suffering a mild case of ‘bloggers block’. Occasionally it happens and usually – as in this case – it disappears within a few days. I did some exploring though, and saw some really nice places but when having this ‘blockage’ even changing a windlight for a nice pic is…
The Pines at Jacobs Pond
Sometimes it is just nice to spend some time on a sim that has no ‘action’ as it were, but just…virtual peace, quiet and nature. I often look for places like that, simply to look around, frame a nice view and stare a bit at my screen while having deep and meaningful thoughts. Well, or…
The Return of Kittens Heaven
When Isabelli Anatine submitted a picture to the SL10B photocontest, she promised that if she would win one of the prizes (homestead sims, tierfree for some months), she would create a new Kittens Heaven, for all to enjoy. Well, she kept her promise! She won the second prize, a homestead for 2 months! After hard…
It only takes two
After having spent most of my week in the Fantasy Faire and got immersed into the world of dragons, elves and fantasy environments, Sy and I could use some quality time. We took it easy and had a wonderful afternoon, with a balloonride, nice music and catching up with eachother. Sometimes it only takes two….
Fantasy Faire 2013 – Lotus Valley Dream
Oh my, another blogpost on the Fantasy Faire 2013, but hey..I can’t help it; so many gorgeous sims to explore and so many wonderful builds to drool over. And to think I still have not shopped there yet! Anyway! This evening I spent on Lotus Valley Dream, created and designed by Marius Inkpen (who’s art…
Pic Of The Day!
Oh yay and w00t! After a break – I stopped submitting my photo’s after the disappointing way LL handled their last ‘contest’- I put some pics in the official SL Flickr group again earlier this week. To my surprise they chose one of mine today as featured Pic of The Day on the LL website,…
Expecto – Mischief Managed RP
Last night Sy and I went to visit Expecto – Mischief Managed RP, a new sim with a wonderful castle that caught my attention in some posts and pics last week. It was as amazing as I had hoped and it is windlight, shadow and photographer’s heaven! Although the land description, nor any other sign,…
