My new place


As you know, I recently bought a little island in Second Life, and put a house on it. It is not totally finished yet, and I am still trying to make it look like a real island, but I already wanted to give a preview.
I am planning to put a small exhibition of my pictures downstairs, and upstairs the living area's.
I am quiet happy with the place, that I share with Inex Dix, my lovely partner in SL.
As we are still adjusting it from day to day, and as we see the prims getting out of control, we need to finalize it very soon, otherwise I will not have anything left for trying something out.;))

Changing places

Well, this month there were quiet some changes for me in my second life. There was the moving from my little house to the bigger one, some personal stuff, where I will not talk about for now, and now I have my own piece of land. Finally.
It has taken some days to decide, and asked some friends for advice, but now it is so far. I bought it.
It is a little island of 2300 sq/m on the Strawberry estate of Coolz0r Courier, a view on the ocean, surrounded by water, sculpture artist as a neighbour, nice friends on the same island group, low lag. What more do you need?
A few months ago there was a proposal from Tiana Meriman, for a blogpile land, but unfortunately, we had not enough interested people, so I had to look out for something else.
For more than 6 months now I have been flying around without having my own place, without having the feeling to have a home, with exception of the last month where I have been renting a house.
The house that I rent now is very modern and nice, but I face a new decision now. What house should I put on that land? Should I buy the same house that I have now? Should I ask some friends to build one for me? Should I try to build one on my own? I can even make my own exposition gallery.
Perhaps you can give me some ideas.

Changing houses

I was renting a house for a couple of weeks in Second Life, but recently Merrily and I decided to change our houses. Our old house was very small, but cosy, but we had uninvited visitors (read griefers), as we lived nearby a club, I suppose.
Now we have found a new little house, and are not yet finished to put all the things into the house that we wishes, for two reasons. The first reason is that we have not enough prims to put it all in the house, and secondly, the house is quiet big.;)
We have found a solution to reduce our first problem. We are learning to build things on our own, and maybe they are not yet the high design as we wished, but I think Merrily did already a pretty good job with the table and the seats in the living room. Even the seats have there own animation.W00t!
We were visiting so many shops, where we did find very nice things, but with too many prims that we could afford, so we decided to build on our own.
I am happy to give you already a little preview, and maybe within a couple of months, when we still rent this place, we could organize a blogger party?! Wouldn't that be great?
