As a ‘follower’ of bee Baroque’s blog, I always check her new stuff and every time I think : “Ooh, I must have that!!”, and then for some reasons it never happens :(. Not this weekend though! I saw her new tops, Brocade, and they looked so gorgeous on the blog that I specially logged…

Seraphine’s mood
I suppose Seraphine’s mood is a bit crazy! Actually it is the name of an Art sim :). I spent some time there this weekend, trying out all kind of poses and animations and admired the creativity! On ground level you find two pretty large islands, shaped as humans lying in the water. Impressive! On…
Elonia
This weekend I took a trip to weird place: Elonia. To be honest, I am not sure what the aim of this place is..if there is any, but I just liked it a lot. What exactly? I would say the odd style, fantasy-like building, the statues that are alien-like..the colors and the strangest furniture I…
Turing Breezes
Turing Breezes is a Gallery, dedicated to Peter Vos,a Dutch illustrator (1935-2010). This memorial sim is built by his son Sander and a wonderful tribute to a great artist! The gallery, almost completely made in black and white, consists of 6 floors on which you can explore the life and works of Peter Vos and…
Valhal
Thanks to my travels in Second Life, I am (almost) never bored in quiet weekends as this! Most of my SL friends are offline in the weekends, to spend time in this thing called Real Life. Me? I don’t have much going on in there, so I click the teleport-button and fly around in cyberspace…
Solidea Folies & Salimar
I am not really sure if the creators/builders that made Salimar intended to give it that mediterranean feel it gave me, but if they did: very well done! It reminded me a bit of a little town in the south of France, Provence du Var, called Fayence where I have spent some wonderful summer holidays…
Un Jour
This morning, Sunday mornings are always lovely for exploring, I visited Un Jour. The landing point was a bit odd, on top of a huge glass greenhouse but once I jumped off, I discovered an amazing place! It is a shop, you can buy clothes (fantasy-style, very sweet), hats with floral toppings and skyboxes! All…
‘And whether pigs have wings…’
Ha. Odd title for a post, eh? It is a sentence from one of my favourite poems by Lewis Carroll – The Walrus and the Carpenter (from Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, 1872). How did I come to that? Well…I was flying and teleporting around and discovered a sim (Dysphoria) dedicated to…
Too creepy
In real life I am not at all into scuba-diving or snorkeling. I would rather jump from a plane with a parachute, than go deep-sea diving. I tried, honestly! I went snorkeling when I was on a holiday on the Maldives, because everybody kept on telling me how wonderful it was in the coral reefs…
Saint Francis Church and Monastery
And now for something completely different! I visited the Saint Francis Church and Monastery, described in the SL Destination Guide as: ‘a serene and quiet location perfect for personal reflection, meditation, prayer, or a religious service. Enjoy the stunning beauty of this tranquil island and take time to meander through the lush surroundings.’ All true!…
Dynafleur
In need for some colours to brighten up my day…I found myself in Dynafleur. An art installation, with mysterious sounds and a transparent walkway through an incredible psychedelic tunnel! Super! Yeah, yeah…maybe a bit too colourful for some of us, but for me it was just a perfect break in the day! …
MB Creationz
If you like furniture with lovely details, silky or velvet fabrics and fluffy cushions..then MB Creationz is the place to go! Even when not in need for new furniture, this store is a wonderful place to amaze yourself…I really love the style and details of almost everything there is: fantasy or realistic sets of furniture,…
iTuTu & YumYum
On a stormy and dark night, I was teleporting around the world and ended up on a lovely square with shops, called iTuTu. What a delightful surprise this place turned out to be! The shops are all very detailed, and there is a variety of very well crafted products to be found…skins, clothes, garden and…
Look: another Caity!
Having read about Inworldz, my curiosity made me create an account for this virtual world which is supposed to be better than Second Life, and where many who have left SL for various reasons have moved to. Creative as I am, I named my Inworldz avatar: Caity Tobias (heh!). I downloaded the viewer and there…
[Albergo Bosco]
“Less is more..” This certainly goes for [Albergo Bosco], an icy, peaceful and wonderful place I visited recently. All there is: a ship, mountains covered in snow and shadows, snowflakes falling, a mystic lake on which you can have a romantic dance and a quiet, cosy place to sit and relax. A perfect place to…
Valentine Town
Co lours! I love sims that use bright and cheerful colours as much as I love serene sims.. With Valentine’s Day approaching, Elizabeth Town is now transformed to “Valentine Town”. A happy place, with cute little pink shops where you can find all you need for Valentine’s Day, such as sweets, cards, jewellery, decorations, lingerie…
