After I saw pictures on Flickr of Rebeca Bashly’s latest full sim art installation ‘Sleepy Snail‘ I immediately put it on my list of things to go see ASAP! It’s known I am a fan of Rebeca’s work, and this one on Metales is as delightful as I hoped it would be! Now, I am…

Mad City Christmas is another gorgeous looking city created by Mad Pea Productions, this time the city is covered in snow and there are plenty of shops for some good old fashioned Christmas shopping. There is also the Holiday Havoc Hunt and and Advent Calendar with gifts, for those looking for some action and puzzles…
A Postcard Christmas
Every year when it gets near halfway December, I get a shock when realising how fast Christmas is approaching. To me it always feels like it is suddenly there, while I am still in Autumn-mode… In SL things go even faster, Christmas decorations all over the place – even before the 5th of December…in my…
Past and Present
When Don and I met for the first time, many years ago, we both looked different…although not so much as I thought. After Don had his picture taken by Trinetty Skytower, picturing him with both a young and mature face (THIS is the most awesome portrait I have ever seen!), we got inspired to make…
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…
Red Shoes at MIC
“Red Shoes” is an impressive art exhibition on MIC – Imagin@rium, featuring……red shoes and is made possible in collaboration with Il Murgutta Art Gallery. As the information notecard says : ‘Elaborating on the idea of the Mexican artist Elina Chauvet, who in 2009 exhibited his first installation “Zapatos Rojos” in Ciudad Juárez, which later became…
Ice, Ice Baby
Well yes, I woke up with Vanilla Ice’s old song in my head. Don’t ask….and please don’t judge… To distract myself a bit from ‘stop, collaborate and listen!’ all the time, I went out for some shopping inworld and ended up at the Main Event Winter. A quite nice concept, creators sell outfits but only…
Open House: Autumn Dreams Cottage
Oh yay! Another Open House! This time Editorial Clarity and Ricoracer Flux once again open their private getaway to the public for a few days, so if you want to go see their Autumn Dreams Cottage you may need to hurry: it will be open till Sunday 1 December! I have been to their previous…
The Trace – Winter edition
So. There. And YAY! This evening I got the IM I was secretly hoping for, for a couple of days already….Kylie Jaxxon telling me she finished transforming The Trace into winter! I literally dropped everything and hopped over, and did not get disappointed! I have been ‘awed’ by The Trace in Spring, Summer and Autumn…
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…
Yuki No Yume – A Dream of Snow (closed)
Edit february 2014, this sim is now closed. This morning I was delighted to find out Jac Mornington opened his newest sim, Yuki No Yume – A Dream of Snow, to the public. A wonderful Japanese winter, a joy to walk around and explore! There are secluded spots, panoramic views, some wildlife and snow is…
Dawn of Radiance
‘The dawn has come And the wine will run And the song must be sung And the flowers are melting In the sun’ This is quoted from the land information of Dawn of Radiance, and of course they had me at ‘wine’ ! But without joking, Dawn of Radiance is a lovely sim, currently covered…
Invisible People – by Rebeca Bashly
The brandnew art installation by Rebeca Bashly, called Invisible People, has been featured on many blogs and in Flickr already and that is not without reason! I always enjoy Rebeca’s work very much and could not wait to tp to ‘La Citta Perduta’ in which this work is displayed. Invisible People is a story, presented…
RiTai Dreamland
RiTai Dreamland is one of those places I will have to re-visit over and over again, because there are so many hidden treasures and spots to explore! It may seem as ‘just another’ tropical island, and yes….there is sand, sea and palmtrees but…it is also the home of Bryn Oh’s shop of Curiosities and Oddities!…
Open house: Nat’s Place – Fairchang Bonita
When I saw the invitation on Flickr by NaT H., to visit her sim and private home, of course I could not wait to have a look! I am rather fond of ‘open houses’ as this gives the opportunity to see how people live and enjoy their Second Life. And it gives inspiration as well….
Happy Mood in Winter
As much as I enjoyed the colourful Autumn sims, I am delighted that now, slowly, some of my favourite locations are turning into winter settings. I think it has to do with my obvious preference for bright and white pictures, like in summer and spring, as well as the fact Autumn is my least favourite…
