STÖMOL on Lab Gab, this friday!


There is a lot going on behind the scenes, in preparation to the premiere of STÖMOL! Besides getting ready for the premiere and getting the venue ready (not to mention sorting out my outfit and hair!), Huck and I are invited to Strawberry Linden’s weekly live talkshow ‘Lab Gab’ to talk about the movie! Yesterday…

Stömol backstage – my life as a Second Life actress


In my last blogpost of 2019, I briefly mentioned Stömol, the feature-length machinima by my dear friend Huckleberry Hax, and that I have played a part  (or two…three…)  in this Sci-fi movie. People often ask me ‘Cait, what is it like? Being an actress in Second Life?’ Well, to be honest. Nobody has ever asked…

Nevgilde Gaard – Small and delightful


A beautiful place in Second Life doesn’t always need to be the size of a full sim. Proof of that is Nevgilde Gaard. On 1/8th of a sim, Neaira Allegiere created a deligthful – inspired by Norwegian nature –   coastal piece of heaven – which you should definitely visit! What can I say..other than that…

2019: Exploring, Parties, Fantasy Faire and Stömol!


Two days left of this decade! And as it goes, there are a lot of shows on television looking back at 2019 – so I got some inspiration to look back at my 2019 too! I have not been that active in blogging, not at all even…but that doesn’t mean I have not been in…

SL16B – There’s cake, aliens and more!


Finally open to the public, today: SL16B! SecondLife’s “Sweet Sixteen” with a 1950s retro theme. A theme I am sure many will love – I know I do! What’s there to do? Of course the SL16B sims are great to explore and be amazed by the creations on display, and I am honest: this year…

Endless on a Sunday morning


The snow has melted, the sun is out and I just got home from a lovely, long, walk with my dogs, my idea of a  perfect start of a relaxed Sunday! The dogs have eaten and are taking their morning nap, so I went for some more walking; in Second Life! This walk is as…

My N00b moment and Tralala’s Diner


This morning, after some shopping, I was unpacking my new purchases in peace and quiet, a disaster happened. I am not sure what I did, but all of a sudden my screen was brownish and I could not zoom back to the normal view. I tried to reset the camera position, but it seemed I…

Huckleberry Hax – AFK, all of it


Two weeks ago, on 16 March, Secondlife Author Huckleberry Hax published his 5 detective novels in the AFK series combined into one, 740 page book. This publication marked the closure of his series and of course this was celebrated with a launchparty in Huck’s Stoshchuckles Bar in the Nancy Redgrave Building. Huck asked me to…

50 Cats


It’s not that I hate cats, hate is a too strong emotion or word. I just don’t particularly like them. The feeling seems to be mutual, so I don’t feel too bad. To explain a bit more; in RL I am very allergic to cats, they make me sick and take my breath away –…

Time for a new skyhome!


While I liked my skyhome as it was, I also felt the need to change it. Just because I can! I had been looking at all kinds of buildings the past month, but when my friend Huckleberry Hax showed me his latest creation, Dragonfly, I knew I found my new house! The moment it was…

L U N A – The story of Humankind


“The year is 2024 — a privately funded team of scientific experts, botanists, and astronauts has been assigned with the task of taking selected specimens from earth in an attempt to colonize the planet known to us only as – L U N A –. Luna is the last hope for the survival of the…

2017, my Second Life year in pictures


With just a few days left before we enter a new year, I got a bit nostalgic and scrolled down my Flickr stream to have a look back. While 2017 has not been a particularly great year for some months, it is never a problem to find the good stuff that happened, the great places…

Christmas surprises


So I was going to write a Christmas blogpost, with all kinds of well wishes, looking back at 2017 and looking forward to 2018. But real life chores kept me busy (amongst other excuses) and when I finally had the time to login and sat for it, I got distracted. In a good way. No,…

Holiday Trace


To my delight Kylie Jaxxon has once again created a version of her wellknown and much loved The Trace. This time it is called Holiday Trace, and when I saw the announcement on Flickr that it would open soon, I was counting the days to go see it! Today it opened and it is without…
