Surfin’ Sunday – Teahupo’o


After having fun surfing last weekend, I decided to go and try another surfer’s paradise this Sunday: Teahupo’o (M). First I got myself some more appropriate beachwear for the occasion (and yeah, no high heels today!), just another excuse to go shopping..hehe. Teahupo’o has two big waves you can surf,  with a free board you…

World’s End Garden


World’s End Garden ~Noir et Blanc is an art installation, and even though it is under construction for some parts, it is still amazing! You land in a black environment with white waves, in the distance you see a shiny garden! The waves are rolling under your feet, a strange experience!

Surfin’ Sunday


What is a better Sunday than a Sunday at a nice beach? In my new bikini, I went to Braata Beach,  the description promised this is a cool place to meet people and have a good time on the beach, dancing and surfing the Maverick Wave! The place was disappointingly empty, which surprised me a…

Antarctica – Vanguard Armed Forces


Instead of being out in the sun (it was too windy anyway) I dressed up all warm and travelled to Antarctica’s Vanguard Armed Forces (M). A multiple sim Roleplay environment, breathtakingly beautiful! On arrival one is advised to use windlight settings: ‘Antarctica’ for sky and ‘Ice-like’ for water. After I did that…it was as if…

Grand Canyon


In real life I have never been to the Grand Canyon, but it is on my wishlist! Luckily there is Second Life and I was happy to find out you can visit the Grand Canyon in virtuality! It is a great place for photo shoots, specially when you play a bit with different skies and…

Easter on ImperiuM Island


Thanks (not) to my busy schedule and travel last week, I had no time to decorate my Linden Egg in time for the BunnyJam Contest…aw! But to get our sim a bit in the holiday spirit of Easter (read: another excuse to go shopping and finding nice decorations!) I put some Easter-decorations at the Landing…

Split Screen


Nope, this post is not about using online social media on splitscreens (as Hootsuite or Splitweet) but about an art installation called Split Screen, meaning two art installations on a sim. On arrival you are advised to set your world to midnight, for full enjoyment! I did and explored the two (hence the Split) works…

Orangelo – Pop Art


Fridaynight..and after a nice, long nap on the sofa I went to visit Orangelo (M). A colorful sim, filled with art! The texture of the ground is a metal plate, so this gives a completely different look and feel – compared to other ‘SL- lands’! It is a lovely place to wander around and look…

Magnolioideae Palace – Anarchy Island


The magnificent Magnolioideae Palace (what’s in a name, this is not easy  to type!) on Anarchy Island is absolutely one of the most amazing palaces I have seen in Second Life! On the landing point, in front of the huge palace, cars and motorcycles are parked – as if there is a fancy ball going…

Milk Motion – Cupcake


Milk Motion (or Cupcake) is the destination when you a looking for a sunny – but not tropical – shopping experience! What a lovely ‘mall’ this is! A field with long, yellow grass and flowers, the shops are located in  little wooden cabins and when you set your viewer to sunset this is not only…

Town of Button


Oh la-la!  I ‘discovered’ this lovely cartoon-sim! Colourful and so unlike many of the other places you see! Town of Button is a cartoon-world, not realistic at all – including the texture they used for the ground – and filled with huge flowers, donuts to sit on (next to a cartoon-fire) and some shops where…

ZED


Nothing cheers me up better on a grey Sunday morning than visiting a colorful sim, filled with art and weird things. So this morning I went to explore ZED (M). It’s colorful, with a pirate ship filled with grass and butterflies, chess pieces and some funny poseballs here and there. Also, on top of the…

Done gardening (for now!)


In real-life I do not have a garden. I have had one or two, ages ago and always like working in them. Specially in spring, getting new plants and flowers and being busy out in the fresh air. In Second Life I always enjoy keeping up with the seasons on our sim, ImperiuM Island (G),…

Farstar New Earth: Parallel Worlds


The Parallel Worlds on Farstar New Earth (G) are simply: breathtaking! On landing point (you enter the sim on ground level) you need to take the teleporter to the Parallel Worlds, to find yourself high in the sky in a surreal build of spheres, where you find the most absurd and magical environments. Fantasy creatures…

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…

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…
