Meanwhile in Lunarville…
Welcome to the year 2052, where Planet Earth is suffering from a dire state. Meanwhile, the ultra-rich have migrated to the moon, specifically to a place called Lunarville. However, only a select 1% of them apparently managed to secure a spot in this exclusive lunar community. Lunarville is a funny and unique destination with a…
3 regions I keep revisiting!
While there are many regions I have yet to explore, and new ones added weekly, I couldn’t resist revisiting three particular regions that left a lasting impression on me in the past weeks. Different in themes, but all three worth a (re) visit and great for taking pics. Buddha Garden, pictured above, is part of…
Mystery Guests, a review of MAEVA Bora Bora
A few weeks ago Dirk Lemon, owner of the The SL Hotel Inspector website, asked me if I would like to do a review of one of Second Life’s luxury holiday resorts. Of course I was more than happy to do this, I love his website and who doesn’t like a vacation! Because a holiday…
The Muse
Last year I have spent most of my SL time in cyberpunk themed sims, while busy with Stömol, the movie by Huckleberry Hax and to be fair…I kind of missed the fantasy side of Second Life every now and then. But, now the filming is done and Huck is busy with editting the movie together,…
Auld Lang Syne – Isles of Scotland
Are you in the mood for some SL Traveling? I know I am! One of my current favourite destinations to explore and admire is Auld Lang Syne, Isles of Scotland. Created by Elo Moon (eloiseblake), the Isles of Scotland is a beautiful place, or as she says in the land information: Remote, rustic and occasionally…
My N00b moment and Tralala’s Diner
This morning, after some shopping, I was unpacking my new purchases in peace and quiet, a disaster happened. I am not sure what I did, but all of a sudden my screen was brownish and I could not zoom back to the normal view. I tried to reset the camera position, but it seemed I…
Cobkobo – Russia
This week I was in explorer-mode and I often find interesting and photogenic places when scrolling through Flickr. So many talented SL Photographers post the most wonderful landscapes images, making me somewhat envious at times, but most important: making me want to visit those places! Sadly not everyone includes landmarks to their uploads, allthough most…
Oboeru
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…
The Apothecary
After three (almost four) intense, but amazing, weeks of The Fantasy Faire I took a sort of break from exploring in Second Life. That is not new, I need this every year after the Faire – to get back to earth and unwind a bit. I still have not posted all my pictures of the…
The Fairelands have arrived!
Finally, after waiting a year, the Fantasy Faires Fairelands have emerged from the mist and have opened their portals to the public! Avatars, clothing, furnishings, gadgets and exclusive items are available from more than 200 of Second Life’s top Fantasy Creators across ten stunning shopping sims designed by some of the visionary artists behind many…
The Ruins of Deepmarsh
Sometimes all I want to do, when logging into Second Life, is go to a pretty place and take pictures. Just wandering about or sit somewhere and look around, listening to some good music and enjoy the scenery. That is what I did tonight. Real life has been hectic all week and in The Ruins…
The Hell’s Heaven 2.0
What else to do on a Saturday night than some exploring? OK, partying…and clubbing, but I wasn’t really in the mood for that, so exploring it was! The other day I visited The Hell’s Heaven 2.0 and was amazed by it. Such a great place! Wonderfully landscaped and decorated, so tonight I went back to…
Sarawak
Sarawak is the home sim of the lovely, and very talented SL Photographer!, Ermandalee and it has been on my list to visit for way too long! This afternoon, I finally took the time and was happy I did! I had seen so many awesome pictures of this gorgeous, rural, place on flickr (there is…
Taka No Sakura
In between horsing around, helping Ratt getting a new look and doing pics with Coober, I also did some exploring! Busy busy eh! A few days ago I visited Taka No Sakura SLURL, a wonderful Japanese themed sim with some gorgeous spots! I particularly love the Bamboo Forest with soft lightbeams, so relaxing! Very much…
