The creator of this enchanting Scottish Isle was inspired by the landscape of the Inner Hebrides islands off the Western coast of Scotland and... Continue Reading →

Editor’s Picks 2
It was high time for me to do some quasi random exploring in Second Lifeâ„¢. I particularly like scrolling through the Editor's Picks section of the Destination Guide until I see something that tickles my fancy.

Anduril revisted
Much of my time in SL is spent faffing with fiddly bits and styling my avatar. I sometimes joke that I came here for the sex, but stayed for the style. I get satisfaction out of it, because I always wanted to try my hand at styling people, but never could get my hands on... Continue Reading →
