Last week I received a kind invitation from Liara ‘Kemicq’ Okiddo, to come visit her latest project Le Botanique, as she describes : ‘ A rainy day, a moment of Zen, a botanical garden.. Something different and immersive..’ It certainly is a rainy day, in Le Botanique, and very Zen. A lovely, quiet place to…

Herd of the Wind – UPDATED
Update of this post, on 8 July 2014, after I checked to place today for some more pictures I discovered it was no longer available. I have spoken to Mz Marville, the sim owner and this is what she said: ” The Herdland sim was intended to be a landscaping and roleplay exhibition of western…
Noble goes Dutch – De Vesting
Upon logging in I received a notecard from the Noble-family, announcing the re-vamping of their home sim into : Noble goes Dutch – De Vesting. “De Vesting” is Dutch for “Fortress” and in The Netherlands we have several, well preserved fortresses with characteristic, picturesque, streets and surroundings – often with a wall surrounding the village….
[Norderney] – A smile is the beginning of Peace
After I saw several gorgeous images on Flickr, taken on [Norderney], I decided to tp over and explore this new, to me, destination. It is owned by Jacky McPherson and she did a wonderful job in landscaping and decorating! What a peaceful, lovely place this is! Whether you enjoy walking around, sitting on the small…
Pigeon Island
Pigeon Island is a wonderful destination for exploring, wandering about and taking pictures. You land in a lush, green, forest and when you follow the path you will soon find yourself on a rocky beach, surrounded by oceans and mountains. In the middle a big rock, on which on top – after a nice long…
H220 – ‘Never run in the rain with your socks on’
In between parties on Saturday and of course exploring and taking pics on the 11 sims of the Fantasy Faire…I took the time today to explore a brand new destination, opened 3 May: H220. A watery, rainy sim created by Squonk Levenque and Miuccia Klaar, who also made the wonderful 2304 Rain which I enjoyed…
Fantasy Faire 2014 – opening today
Today, at 9AM SLT, the 11 sims of the Fantasy Faire 2014 will open their doors….well, portals, to the public. I’ve had the privilege of extra early access since this weekend and have been exploring and taking pics like a mad thing, while builders and designers worked their (in some case mesh) asses off to…
Spanish Wells, for art and sports
One of the sports, aside from my years of katanafighting, in SL that I really enjoy doing is surfing. It’s fun, it looks great and important: it’s not that difficult. On most surf-beaches you can also get a free surfboard to use, so it’s really something everyone can try. When I read Ziki‘s and Inara‘s…
Kittens Heaven, episode 4!
(Update 27 April: Kittens Heaven is now open to all!) Two weeks ago Isabelli Anatine told me she, once again, was building a new Kittens Heaven! I have always enjoyed the previous ones, and blogged about it in November 2012, March 2013 and August 2013. Kittens Heaven will, as it used to be, a chill…
Santaurio
A few days ago I received a notice from Jac Mornington and Romy Rosea that they have sold and handed over their lovely sim Baja Norte to Lauren Bentham, who will continue this wonderful beach for all to enjoy (you may want to join the new group for Baja Norte if you want rezz rights)….
Celebrity Hangout, Easter style
So. I am having a bit of ‘the Meh’ this week. Since Sunday my machine decided to hate Firestorm, something I have had with a previous release last year as well: I cannot take high resolution pics when in high or ultra graphics. The moment I hit the snapshot button I crash, with the lovely…
5 Quick tips for new residents
Oh my..! That’s what I thought when I read Berry’s Monday Meme and it took me a bit to think on how to participate on this one : give 5 advices to Second Life Newbies…Sounds simple, but it isn’t ? There is so much to tell, warn, explain, point out and there are tons of…
The {Lost} Garden Of Sundarya Lahari By Xineohp Guisse
When randomly teleporting around, I ended up in The {Lost} Garden Of Sundarya Lahari By Xineohp Guisse, on LEA13. I explore a lot and often, well..actually it is how I spend most of my SL time. I do not blog about all places I visit, sometimes I just travel around without making pictures and other…
Tulips!
The past few days the weather here in Holland has been more than lovely, temperatures around 20C degrees and blue skies. I have been out to town and sat on a terrace, sipping a Latte (well, okay a Latte and some wine after that…) and watching people, and enjoyed being out and about. Berry’s Meme…
Amazon River
Yesterday I spent some time exploring Amazon River (Adult), a – as the name already suggests – jungle with the river Amazon meandering through. Amazon River is a roleplay sim, but this is optional and not mandatory. On the landingpoint you will find several signs, group joiners, for each role. You can choose to play…
* Frisland * – A preview
Last night I was delighted to receive an invitation to visit a brand new location *Frisland*, a project by Charlie Namiboo, Anna Barzane and Frislanda Ferraris, which will soon be opened to the public, but is now open for preview for bloggers/photographers. The invitation came with a notecard, with some background on the how and…
