Landscaping in style


This weekend I worked on our sim, getting it all ready for the winter season. It felt good to remove most of the autumn-trees, although I did like them a lot. But it is December so time to let it snow! Of course, one cannot just work with snow in shorts, sandals and tank top!…

Meanwhile, in the real world..


Cait’s operator is on a rl- business trip, so Cait won’t be in world as much as she is used too! Berlin this time, where it is freezing cold and apparently Christmas already arrived in this city :). My hotel is on the famous Kurfurstendamm, but unfortunately all shops are closed on Sundays :(.  I…

Pip’s Amazing Airship


This afternoon I was honoured to be invited in Pip’s private home! This lovely lady has a steam punk Airship, something I have never seen before! At first I was overwhelmed by the colours and all the shiny object, but what a wonderful and happy place it is!It’s very complete and I found it an…

Mysterious Waves


Into art and installations? Then Mysterious Waves is the place to visit! Nice mellow music on stream and best: a lovely, mysterious  clouded sky. May take a while to rez once you land there, but the effect is amazing! On small islands you will find art-works, some with (meditation) sitposes and others to just watch…

Standby


‘Standby’ is the name of an installation made by the famous (if I may say so) Bryn Oh, whose work I always admire! Standby is located on the IBM sim and, as usual for Bryn, a surrealistic build. Just amazingly detailed and confusing ;). Somewhere on the floor you will find a perkament paper which…

Lazy Saturday


The weekends are always kind of quiet in ImperiuM, giving me some time to explore and catch up chatting with friends who are not into katana–fighting. This afternoon, while chatting in IM, I amused myself in the Garden of Dreams. One of my favourite places in Second Life. I simply love the fields with high…

Mysterious Pteron


On one of my travels, I discovered a mysterious place called Pteron. A blue/green city with many chambers and plateaus. I enjoyed exploring this mystic build, while listening to their stream playing relaxing (almost out of this world) music…I had my settings on midnight and was amazed.. There are some danceballs for couples and some…

Sharp blades & and a Lunar Adventure..


Last night was long but good! Went to bed waaaayyyy past my bedtime, but I was having so much fun online….it was impossible to log off! It was lovely to see some new members in our dojo, all eager to practice and doingtheir  best to improve the new learned skills! Made me remember how hard…

Bentham Forest


Nothing better to lighten up my day than a visit to Bentham Forest. A surreal, colourful and above all enchanting place, built by Lauren Bentham. In this case, I have nothing to describe or tell…you should just go there and see for yourself, enjoy!

Virtual calories


No matter how active Cait is, she is never hungry….and never needs food to keep the energy going! Still, food in Second Life is fun. And in some cases beautiful even! I stumbled across a lovely tea-room on a nice sim, Nonino Sweets. mouth-watering cakes and donuts for display, really well made. The environment is…

Walking on the Moon


Giant steps are what you take Walking on the moon I hope my legs don’t break Walking on the moon We could walk for ever Walking on the moon We could live together Walking on, walking on the moon The Police – Walking on the Moon Listening to some old songs, I used to be…

Off The Wall


I was in need for a colourful distraction this morning…something different, something epic! So I browsed through the Destination Guide (my SL Travel Bible!) and teleported to a place called ‘Off The Wall’. It is colourful indeed and very weird, but I love it! It’s unlike so many places that are build to recreate a…

The Atomizer


Real early, when having my Saturday morning coffee & corn flakes, I went to a place called The Atomizer. It is actually a shop (main store even..) where you can buy ONE weapon: The Atomizer… The reason I think this is a cool place to visit, is the setting. It’s not at all a shop,…

Guy Fawkes Day


Nope. I am not English, but Dutch. However, I am in the UK a lot and have some close  friends from that funny island as well, therefore I do know about Guy Fawkes Day (and I know he once fought against the Dutch with the Spanish..tsk!) On the 5th of November it’s Guy Fawkes Day,…

The Corn Field


“The Corn Field is a region of Mythological status where once naughty avatars were sent to think about what they had done. The Corn Field is a vast star-lit field of corn and was cut off from communication with the rest of the world. A reference to the classic Twilight Zone episode ‘It’s a good…

Next Holiday please!


This morning I removed all Halloween decoration on ImperiuM Island, to get it over with! To be honest, I am kind of looking forward to the next Holiday-season, to have an excuse to turn the sim upside down and decorate again, hehe! Last year we had an ice-rink on one of the ponds, but then…
