Lakeside-revisted

“If I had a flower for every time I thought of you...I could walk through my garden forever.” 

― Alfred Lord Tennyson

You may break, you may shatter the vase, if you will, But the scent of the roses will hang round it still.

One of my very best friends in Second Life is Greg. He has remained and comforted me when relationships failed. We all need that one friend we can count on and get his shirt wet from tears. The past month has not been easy on me and I wonder why such drama even exists in second life? I suppose it is because behind each Avatar is a human being who drives it and humans LOVE drama, I think?

Sometimes it is best to just sit down and talk and let it all out. It helps to have a good listening ear such as your best friend. 

What also helps is a beautiful sim to go to and escape to like Lakeside. I used to come here often and it always was beautiful and serene. There are some new spots added to the place and it is worth it to come and check it out.

Lakeside is a romantic place where you can lose yourself very easily. Don't hesitate to come and visit this lovely place. Bring your friend, some tissues and let it all out. Maybe you just want to smile and feel happy? This is the place :)

Matin rose chambre (Morning Rose Room)

I finally finished the matin rose chambre at the Retreat. This was the former chocolate mint room that has been transformed to this lovely and cheerful bedroom.

You will find some of the gacha items I found along the grid (such an obsession).The bedroom set is a special find on the marketplace from What's Next.

The room is located inside the Chateau upstairs to the left. Stop by soon and take some pictures or just relax.

Four Seasons

You want to think of Vivaldi's four seasons when you visit this sim, because it has them for sure. An absolutely must is the mountain. 

Welcome to Vivaldi: the land of Four Seasons. We welcome you to visit all areas of the sim. There are beaches, forest, swamp land, Mount Shen, which is a must see here at Vivaldi. 

If you like snow in the summer and want to cool off the snowy mountain is a very nice spot. I loved the sensation of height because you really felt you were way up there. Very nicely done. Wear a coat, the snow is chilly.

Don't forget to explore the beach and take pictures. There are also some nice spots to cuddle with the one you love or maybe romance someone new.

The Vineyard at Checkmate

The Vineyard at Checkmate is one of those sims that is done in precise perfection. You feel the warm Tuscany sun ever-so basting the grapes. There is so much to explore here and every spot is detailed to pure enjoyment. This is a place you will want to visit more than once and show off to your friends.



"A rambling vineyard enveloped by a hazy sky. Wander through the grapes as they soak up the sun, producing the best vintage of pixel wine on the grid."

Ocho Tango Place

New and improved the Ocho Tango Place the first place in Second Life to offer Tango and Romance. 

The Sim is now split in half and shares Digital Art -Cammino e Vivo Capovolto. It is worth a look and hang out here, even if you do not know how to Tango.

Gardens of Grace

Another beautiful serene place to visit with someone or just alone. Gorgeous photo ops here.

If you are into weddings, they have a really nice chapel where you can make those vows or just sit and reflect.

Here is your TP to the Gardens of Grace

Daydreams

Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is like a broken-winged bird that cannot fly.
The Chapel is still beautiful and it calms my spirit.

I went to a sim called Colder Water and sailed around the island. The water seemed warm, the air soft., my boat empty.

My heart feels torn and restless. I find comfort in the smallest creatures.
