And now for something completely different! I visited the Saint Francis Church and Monastery, described in the SL Destination Guide as: ‘a serene and quiet location perfect for personal reflection, meditation, prayer, or a religious service. Enjoy the stunning beauty of this tranquil island and take time to meander through the lush surroundings.’ All true!…

iTuTu & YumYum
On a stormy and dark night, I was teleporting around the world and ended up on a lovely square with shops, called iTuTu. What a delightful surprise this place turned out to be! The shops are all very detailed, and there is a variety of very well crafted products to be found…skins, clothes, garden and…
A Night at the Museum
Ah no, this post is not about the movie with Ben Stiller, although the place I visited did remind me a bit of it! I went to the Museum of Natural History – Vienna, where they now have an exhibition of Dinosaurs. On arrival you will see, after you’ve rezzed, a HUGE skeleton of a…
An Imperial Picnic
Sometimes, with all my travels through Second Life, I almost forget what a lovely sim ImperiuM Island is! I go to all kinds of places and enjoy the rest of world a lot, but every now and then it is just perfect to sit down on our own sim, chat the night away with friends…
Brighten up!
Somewhere there’s someone who dreams of your smile, and finds in your presence that life is worth while. So when you are lonely, remember it’s true Somebody somewhere is thinking of you.. Or what also works, well it does for me, go visit a colorful epic place in Second Life to brighten up the day…
Things to do in a hotelroom
So, I am travelling for work again, to the always friendly and not so sunny United Kingdom! Second Life on my Macbook is possible, for chats only…I cannot fight on that keyboard, besides that the maccie gets too hot when fighting anyway. So I usually spend my evenings in the hotel surfing the web a…
On my way!
The coming days I will be travelling for real-life work, so won’t be in world or online much :(. But! Thanks to WordPress’ amazing feature of blogging in the future…I have prepared some blog posts for this week and they will pop online automatically, so I can keep up with the challenge of ‘post a…
Sway’s
On one of my travels I found a lovely small square, surrounded by little shops selling furniture (home & hobby), clothing (dressed), teddy bears (cookie bears) and animations (swAyNimations) called: SwayLand. I found out all shops are from the same creator, Sway Dench, who really makes lovely and original creations of all sorts! I had…
Les Miserables
“We do not claim that the portrait we present here is a true one, only that it comes close“ Once upon a time, when I was young and innocent *cough*, I wanted to become a teacher and studied French (and English). I always loved reading books, still do, and for my study I had to…
Chocolate and Ice
One of the nicest combinations: ice and chocolate…In Risk City, you will find both, but in a way one would not expect! At the landingpoint, you will find a teleporter which brings you to themed Globes. I visited two of them, an Icey one and a Globe filled with Chocolate! W00t! It’s…
Winterfest: Cross Country Skiing
Snow…although I had have a bit of enough of it in RL, I felt like a nice winteractivity in Second Life tonight! So I teleported to the 8 Winterfest sims and looked around for something I wanted to do. You can do all sort of things, the choice is huge! Sleighriding, skating, horse riding and…..Cross…
Isaac Newton’s Cannon to Orbit
Not sure how seriously scientific this place is, but it sure is fun: The Exploratorium! It’s a globe with a canon installation on top…you can sit on the cannonball and orbit yourself around the world, in a speed of your choice (menu pops up)! I shot myself into orbit a couple of times, but I…
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…
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…
