"Imagine living in a five star hotel, and having constant access to the bars, restaurant, spa and pool.  You might not want to do it all the time, but for a month or two it would be pretty great. Unfortunately in RL, extended luxury hotel stays are the preserve of film stars and business tycoons, but out of the reach of us mere mortals.  Not so in Second Life however, where it’s not only possible, but often cheaper than renting a house or skybox."

"I decided to do another photo series. There will be six photos in total. I’ll have a short paragraph/story accompanying each.

"It has been a while since I’ve posted or rather it feels like it has been a long time. These last months have been hard starting with new medicine that caused some “issues” mentally to losing my SL mom to viral pneumonia caused by COVID-19. Then my birthday came. It wasn’t a bad day. I played some games and read a book. I’ve been coloring a lot since this all began." Read more on the blog.

"I started a gallery, and in fact also an inworld studio if needed (in a skybox). Anyway it is just as an act of presence, nothing else. BTW, the building I used is just bought on Marketplace, for 50 L$, and modded it a bit in layout of the furniture, as also added my own." Read more on the blog.

"I hope by now everybody has arrived in the new year and is ready to face all the challenges that are ahead of us. So I was in the middle of this dream and then I woke up and the world changed almost overnight. People started to come out of their homes ( a little bigger than they were before they were isolated ) and smiled and they started to hug again." Read more on the blog.

A beautiful one with terraces, a surprisingly large living area and a speedboat lying at the mooring waiting to take the open sea." Click over to read more of the interview on the blog.
