Winter @Izzies


It was only a few months…weeks..ago that I blogged about the Safari @ Izzies…and what do you know…: snow! Izzies is one of those main stores on a sim that are so much worth shopping and visiting in-world! Tab out of MP and go to the real thing! Izzies Winter is a delight, even when…

{Noble} New England


It is always exciting to find out about a brand new, photogenic, location and when I saw pictures and blogs about {Noble} New England I felt this was a perfect place to explore on a rainy, chilly Sunday. Well, actually it is a great place to explore any day and in any season, but you…

Imagination – Guana Cay


This last week I have seen lots of great pictures on Flickr by many great SL Photographers taken on Imagination – Guana Cay and when I read Ziki’s post about it, I knew I had to blog about it too! Some places just deserve all the attention! Imagination is a watery sim, with lovely details…

Gardens of Grace


If you feel you need to escape the pumpkins, zombies, ghosts and whatnot for Halloween – I know I do! – …I recommend spending some time exploring The Gardens Of Grace! A wonderful ‘lonely soul sanctuary’ with green forests, waterfalls, beaches, caves and: peace and quiet! There are intan dances allover the place, so you…

Don’t make me drop that apple!


Last night and this morning, in between all the real life hassles of having my chimney replaced and some more dreadful phonecalls to the insurance agency….I found some time to explore the sim of the soon to be opened new event : Enchantment in SL. This event is all about fairy tales and will have…

Cherry Hill


Cherry Hill Haunted Mines is a so called ‘haunted’ location, as it is the season after all eh? In the mine, which you will find when you have passed the market, you can participate in a Quest and collect prizes, seasonal themed of course! Now, I still don’t ‘do’ Halloween, but Cherry Hill is a…

Mulberry, The Abandoned


Yesterday, after trying out the various cool items I bought at Horrorfest…I was going through my LM’s to find a nice location for some pics to show off my new stuff. I have tons of LM’s, so this took a while. Then…I got an IM from Lou Mannock, owner and creator of Mulberry, The Abandoned,…

Small Town Green..err…White!


Small Town Green is one of those gorgeous destinations that has been featured in many blogs and flickr- pictures lately. And rightly so, because it is a very photogenic place, I have used it for some photo’s as well, but never blogged about it. I was there last night again and was pleasantly surprised to…

The Cosmogony of Rafts and other improbable floating beings


For the third time in a month I have started a week with a Monday morning appointment in the hospital, for yet another treatment on my foot. I hoped this morning they would just look and say it’s all healed, but alas…some cutting and fiddling was needed (but now really last time!) and so I…

Burn2 – now open!


Last night Burn2 – Cargo Cult opened to the public and if you love art, desert and burning sun…..you should go and let yourself get amazed by the creativity on display! Burn2 will be open till 27 october, so that gives plenty of time! For information and schedules on events and parties on the official…

Arithmos, numbers from Zero to Infinity


A favourite destination for me in the weekends, while having breakfast and liters of coffee, is the cluster of LEA sims and then hop around from one sim to the other, exploring and hoping to find something that excites me. This morning I ended up at LEA17, in an overwhelming installation by Giovanna Cerise: Arithmos….

Ginger’s Halloween in Samurai Village


Yeah, a second blog-post tonight, the joy of insomnia and a brain that keeps going..and….well, I had this place on my list already and sneaked Berry’s challenge in between the explorer posts.. So. Samurai Village! This sim (no Samurai to be found!) is  the private home of the lovely Ginger Krokus, and she has generously…

The Untroubled Sound


The Untroubled Sound is a gorgeous place I visited last Saturday. It is, according the information you are given when you arrive: New Zealand! I have never been to New Zealand, so I guess I have to believe it looks like this :). The nice thing about The Untroubled Sound is that is has some…

The Harley Davidson Blues – for Dad


It is not that I have a very tight and very warm relationship with my Dad. I dunno, so much happened in our small family and I have often felt an outsider. Of course, my Dad will always be my Dad and I will always be his daughter. We just do not speak each-other often,…

The Beguiled, mainland at its best


Last night I saw some pictures on Flickr, uploaded by Torley, from a lovely colourful garden and naturally I got curious and had to check it out! The Beguiled, is a full mainland (!) sim, dedicated to providing a lush and wonderful environment for all to explore, use for photoshoots and hang out. There is…

World’s End Garden – The End…


Ever since I discovered I enjoyed taking pictures in Second Life and started my first exploring trips, there was the gorgeous sim of Lucia Genesis : World’s End Garden. Over the years I have visited it often, ‘used’ it as background for artistic poses and I am not the only one doing so. This morning…
