On my way!


Being an explorer/shopper in Second Life requires planning! Yeah yeah, there is teleporting and LM’s and whatnot, but still. I usually plan my travels carefully, as I do in real life and if anyone thinks I just randomly hit some buttons…..wrong! First thing is: getting dressed appropriate! And stylish, if possible! Then secondly it’s important…

Artarra


This afternoon I visited Artarra (A) – a sim filled with flowers, trees, birds and surrounded by huge snowy mountains. A lovely place to hangout and explore. There is, besides the meadows filled with colourful flowers also a cave and a tropical-jungle-like beach. It started raining when I was there, figures! But luckily I was…

Cars, Tractors and other vehicles…


On my first two days of my break I have fiddled around in Photoshop, trying to create a nice artistic version of the beloved car of my friend. A cool ‘project’ and I really enjoyed messing about with it – and was happy to send him the original for perhaps a nice print on canvas….

Daytime Dreams


In this wonderful place called Daytime Dreams, I really had the feeling of walking around in a dream. A mad one too! On the surface you walk around on a checkerboard floor, filled with gigantic mushrooms and teapots. Plants with soft leaves have poses to meditate on and if you look carefully, you will find…

Marathon Caye – Wilderness


My two weeks vacation aka Annual Leave has started…it’s a bit weird feeling, and probably needs to sink in yet – it’s my first 2-weeks off in 3 or maybe 4 years! Since the summer in Holland is more than lousy so far, rain 24/7 and some more rain…I took a little break in Second…

Fotoscope


If you like to take pictures in Second Life, but do not have your own land, studio or an inventory filled with poses and props…then you really should visit Fotoscope! It is a sim filled with all kind of poses and scenes, set-ups for group-photo’s, landscapes, danceballs and a variety of backgrounds all over the…

Strawberry Beach


As I am writing this post, it suddenly seems like all I can write about the past days is food-related! Corn, milk and cream and now strawberries…I suspect it has to do with the fact that I still can’t eat well..Heh! Strawberry Beach is the parcel next to my home on the mainland, a 512…

Milk & Cream


Ha, no..this is not a recipe or something like that! Milk and Cream is a magic place,  a floating island filled with lush green forests, tree houses, a barn and secluded spots to hangout or dance. At the landing point you will find some small shops and also a sign with explanation on what scripts…

Back to The Cornfield!


Last October Linden Lab opened their famous Cornfield to the public, to celebrate Halloween. I wrote a blog post about it, because it was pretty special to visit this legendary place. I was supposed to be open for a limited time, but to my delight I saw the Cornfield mentioned in the Destination Guide as…

Second Life Railroad – Do the locomotion


Last night Ratt and I tried to spar some, but were obviously both not in the right mood. We needed to get out a bit, so I showed him my new home on the mainland and when we went for a walk on the Linden Road we discovered Spangle Station, really nearby my house! Spangle…

Thinis


The only thing I could think and say once I landed on Thinis (A) was: Wow. Just…Wow! Thinis is a multi sim roleplay environment, upon arrival you will need to read some notecards and rules, which are pretty straight forward. For more information about this post-apocalyptic roleplay I can recommend their website: thinisthesim.com! I put…

The awful ‘edit’ option…


Heh! I have entertained myself on my new land and did some serious decorating! For now I am happy enough with the ground level, as it looks kinda cute and I managed to keep it low-prim as well. My sky-loft was a bit more tricky. I am not a great builder (one would think I…

Hope


Hope is the dream of a soul awake ~ (French Proverb) And Hope is also a very cool place in Second Life, which I visited Wednesday! It’s  filled with many surprises, wonderful and funny pieces of art and plenty of romantic spots with intan couple dances. I wandered around a bit, got caught in the…

Tableau – part two


I have blogged about Tableau before, but it is just such a funny and amazing place with lots of different things to discover  that I keep going back there. Not only for the cute stuff you can find in the many stores (I like Paper Couture and the Nylon Outfitters a lot!), but also for…

Leave Your Hat On – aDORKable!


Monday afternoon I was looking for a nice spot to make some pictures of my new hair, via all kind of teleports I wandered into the main store of aDORKable Poses. No idea how that happened, but it must have been a lucky shot because I immediately fell for the poses “Leave Your Hat On”…

A Sunday at the beach: Bora Bora


Sunday morning, it’s another cloudy and rather dull day in RL, so much for Dutch summers…sigh! Luckily there is the perfect way to spend some time on a tropical, sunny beach in SL! Hence, off I went to Bora Bora – one of those destinations I would love to visit in real life, but will…
