Early last year I visited Whimberly (read here). I came across Inara Pey’s post “Once more to Whimberly” Saturday, December 30th and learned that I had already missed one makeover of this sim. Spontaneously I revisited Whimberly myself.

Whimberly overview

Staubi (engelsstaub), owner and creator of Whimberly, wrote an inviting landmark description: “Come and explore the spring themed location called “Whimberly“. Enjoy your stay, take lots of pictures, meet friends and above all have fun!“

I had not very much time for my visit, but yes, Whimberly is a beautiful place and gives already a taste of the upcoming spring. I just took a few pictures and enjoyed the atmosphere. There’re some places to sit and relax and for enjoying the views. For a more detailed description read Inara’s blog post.

I recommend a visit and I hope to find a bit of time for another visit to Whimberly myself. Thank you Staubi for sharing your sim with the public.

Diary 2017 (221) December 30th – Bella’s trial

Saturday, December 30th, was quite varied again. I met with Jenny in the afternoon and she was looking for trouble. That’s not as easy as it was years ago in Second Life. We visited several clubs and ended up at Heavy Bondage Club but had no success. But it was quite relaxing to read profiles and to chat about them. Our afternoon went by way too quickly.

December 30th, 2017: Jenny and Diomita at Heavy Bondage Club

At night I first went on a short but lovely simploring tour, most probably tomorrow’s post. Then I met with slave Flo and took her to Lochme. Jenny wasn’t around yet and I wanted to try out an old capture and kidnap tool at Lochme, just for a change and for my and our fun. The tool needs rezzing rights and I could rezz a cage but the tool itself didn’t work there unfortunately. While I was at Lochme, first slave slut cecy and then slave Bella came inworld and I took them home for less lag. we had just arrived when Jenny joined us.

December 30th, 2017: Diomita with slave Flo, slave slut cecy and slave Bella at Lochme / starting slave Bella’s formal trial – Jenny, Diomita, slave slut cecy and slave Flo at the tube with slave Bella inside

The night was particular as Jenny and I had agreed to take slave Bella on her last step to become officially collared by us. We didn’t have a formal trial in the tube cage for many years. slave Bella willingly entered the tube and I sealed it. What a lovely view! Finally the tube is used again for what it is intended.

Our night ended at club DeLust with slave slut cecy. She got an xcite clit from Santa and is busy learning how it works.

On Friday, December 29th, I made another simploring tour in the afternoon and visited La virevolte  (see yesterday’s blog post here). It was a nice surprise that Jenny joined me in the end of my simploring tour. Later we went to Domme a Domme both wearing our new clothes from KaS which we gifted eachother, Jenny got the costume set and I got the hotpants set.

At night we had our last Friday night party for 2017. Jenny proposed that we should have a dress-up night for our last party in 2017 and Virgo set the theme accordingly. A few days before Jenny had gifted a black and white gown and of course I had to wear it. It’s a quite rare look for me and I had to adjust walking and also dancing as the gown didn’t allow large steps. Sometimes SL is like RL *sighs* and I was happy to change after the party. We had quite a nice and large crwod again and a lot of fun und the Friday night partys will continue to be a fixed date in our SL calendar.

After publishing the blog post about my simploring tour to La virevolte I got a message from Annie Oh (anniebrightstar) who follows my simploring tours. She knows that I look up the SL Destination guide every once in a while, when I have no destination on my list to visit. Annie has collated every travel blog she can find for some 4 years now and put into scoop.it. Look it up here: https://www.scoop.it/t/second-life-destinations. Here you can search blog entries about a SL destination or just look up the latest published entries. I added the link to the “Other links” section on the right.


Annie has also her own blog https://anniessl.blogspot.co.uk/ and I’ll have a look at that from now on. She’s a simplorer like I am. I added her blog “Exploring Second Life with Annie” to the list  “Active blogs” on the right as well.
On Annie’s blog I also found another scoop.it page, which is curated by Annie:
Art & Culture in Second Life – art Exhibitions, Literature, Groups & more
I added it also to the “Other links” section on the right.

Thank you for the hint, Annie!

Simploring 2018 (2) La virevolte

December 29th, 2017, I went simploring in the afternoon. Once again I followed a post from Inara Pey’s Living in a modemworld blog “A photogenic twirl in Second Life“.  La virevolte is French and means turn or twist, hence the title of Inara’s post. And La virevolte is really picturesque but natural, it offers great opportunites for taking pictures.

La virevolte – overview

La virevolte is owned and created by Iska (sablina). There’s no landmark description. I looked up Iska’s profile which is quite empty except of one sentence “I love creating landscapes and dreaming inside“. For me these few words describe La virevolte perfectly. You can enjoy lovely views and you can dream and wind down there.

Impressions of La virevolte (1)

La virevolte is an island perfectly melted in a sim surround of high Mountains. The island itself has a flat part with no snow – it looks as if the wind has blown away the snow from this part of the island – and some higher rocky parts. There are a few houses spreaded on the island, also a few ruins. In the center a small natural fjord ends in a small pond. La virevolte looks really natural and I couldn’t get enough from the different views. Although it seems that there’s not much activity you can find some Christmas illuminations here and there and even around the ruins.

During my visit, Jenny came inworld and joined me there. She was not dressed for the cold. We tried some ot the places to cuddle and enjoyed the peace together. I think my pictures do show some of La virevolte‘s beauty. If you like winterly sims, don’t miss this sim and visit it before spring arrives. Well, it might be lovely in sping as well and another reason for me to return then.

Thank you Iska for sharing your dream with the public. I enjoyed my visit very much!

Thursday, December 28th, was another of these quiet days between the years. I met with Jenny in the afternoon. She had just tried on a dress, that we both got a few days before and I dressed alike but choose another colour. We went to Domme a Domme and caught up there about the day before in SL and RL.

When slave Flo came inworld, we returned home. I added Jenny as an owner of slave Flo’s new drone suit and she decided to pull slave’s restrictions a but tighter. In addition I changed the suit’s colour to something between pink and purple, magenta? That’s it about the afternoon.

We spent most of our night with slave Flo. First we played two rounds of greedy, then we went out on a short kinkploring tour and visited Sins Keep and The Hideaway. Both places were empty. While Sins Keep is quite large and has a lot of equipment, The Hideaway is more cosy and offers also a nice photo booth. At The Hideaway we also found a nice punishment rack, which I might purchase for our sim.

After the short kinploring tour, we went dancing at Satyr Club with slave Flo and finished our night at club DeLust and at home (no picture, some things stay private *winks*).

Tuesday, December 26th, 2nd Christmas day or Boxer day as it is called in Britain, was quiet and relaxing for me both in RL and in SL. In the later morning I went online shortly as I noteced Jenny and Kitty being inworld. We caught up with, wished merry Christmas and Kitty got her present, a CC drone suit. We’re pretty sure that our Kitty will have fun with it and set to public it will offer a lot of opportunities for others to tease her, and for her to tease back.

December 26th: Jenny and Diomita with Kitty at home

In the afternoon I took the opportunity to go simploring again to a winterly island and I enjoyed the views and the peace that comes with Winter (see yesterday’s post here). After my simploring tour, I took our slave puppy Christa out of her cell. She made last corrections on her new puppy suit and I finally locked it and set her restrictions for the next 6 months. At night, I took slave pet out for another walk and we visited Mesmerize Dungeon and got some eye candy.

Wednesday, December 27th, I met Jenny again in the afternoon. We exchanged our Christmas gifts, Jenny had a wihte formal gown for me which I shall wear for our year end party on Friday most probably. I had a colourable latex dress for her, which is suitable either as a dominant or as an submissive outfit. we had another mutal gift, a dress that we both purchased, a very sexy and kinky latex dress: We changed into it before we went out to Domme a Domme and later for a dance at the Lesbian Loft. We really do look good like this, don’t we?

December 27th: Mrs. Jenny and Mrs. Diomita Maurer in partnerlook at the Lesbian Loft and at Domme a Domme

At night, I first met slave Flo and she got her Christmas present. Santa brought her a CC drone suit as well. She began immediately to unwrap her present and had a look into it. And then she already began to set it up, I watched her and when she was done, I sealed the suit on her.
When I was about to leave with Flo to visit a club, slave Bella came inworld. I took her to get a chastity belt and as soon as she got it, she was chastitied. slave Bella might become officially collared by us very soon. Then it was about time to wind down a bit in a club and I took the slaves to The Secret House to expose them.

Later also Argi joined us for a bit. And that’s it about these 2 days, quite relaxing and enjoyable overall.

Simploring 2018 (1) La Vie in Winter

December 26th, 2017 I made another simploring tour. I looked up the SL desination guide and scrolled through the recently added sims. There I found La Vie on page 2: “La Vie…formerly a bright sunny beach and then a colorful autumn paradise has now been snowed in. Come play in the snow in this photogenic spot before it’s gone“

La Vie in Winter – Overview

It’s my 3rd visit to La Vie, which is owned by designed by Krys Vita and Arol Lightfoot. I visited it in Summer in June 2016 (read here) and in Autumn in October 2017 (read here). La Vie seems to become a regular simploring destination for me.

La Vie in Winter – the house by the landing point

Again La Vie has changed a lot. It didn’t just snow and become cold. The whole island was redesigned. In the center of the winterly island is a pond, the shores are mostly rocky. There are a few houses spreaded over the island. Each looks cosy and inviting and is furnished and decorated for the season inside and outside. One road leads from the landing spot to another house and a Christmas tree sale. A chaple is located on the highest rock overlooking the island, but it’s hard to reach, you need to climb up the rocks.

There’re some opportunities to sit and cuddle and to enjoy, for example in a sleigh or even in Santa’s sleigh. La Vie sim offers lovely views and is another Winter paradise for those who love taking pictures like me. Completely new is a ski lift, which does not lead up to a mountain, there just 4 or 5 poles, but you can take a picture from a perspective where you don’t see that it doesn’t lead up to a mountain. And there’s one of these big snow vehicles that are used to prepare the slopes. And I even saw another visitor skiing. This way I got a little foretaste for my upcoming ski trip in RL.

La Vie is jsut beautiful and another example of the possibilites for building your own dream in Second Life. Thank you for sharing your sim with the public, Kyra Vita and Arol Lightfoot. I enjoyed my visit to winterly La Vie.

Happy New Year 2018 and some stats and findings about this blog (2017 in review)

01 Jan 2018 Leave a comment

by diomitamaurer in anniversary blog entries, Real Life and Second Life, Uncategorized Tags: , ,

In 2016 I began to blog almost daily, in 2017 I really succeeded to have an entry for every day. Blogging daily is a challenge as there’re days with not that much to report. In addtion, I’m not able to write every day due to other obligations and vacation. Hence I always have some posts on stock and I try to pile up a few more, when I’m off got a few days.
In 2017 I started to number the diary entries as well as the simploring posts. There were more than 200 diary entries and over 100 simploring reports. Over all the blog grew by 374 new posts bringing the total archive of this blog to over 1,100 posts.
As taking pictures is one of my passions in SL and storage space is not free, I also changed the way I publish my pictures and grouped them to save space. When you click the pictures you can see them a bit larger. I also post the pictures on deviant art (Diomita Maurer at Deviant art). There you get the pictures in a higher resultion. I uploaded more than 2,000 pictures in 2017.

We had more than 37,500 clicks this year, again a raise of 10,000 clicks compared to 2016. That’s on average more than 100 clicks per day. The blog attracted 8,500 visitors, an increase of 50% compared to 2016. Most clicks came from Germany (7,800), the US (6,900) and the UK (4,200). The statistics show that in total people from over 100 countries visited our blog. Also the number of followers increased to close to 100! Many thanks to all friends, readers and followers.
Most found our blog coming from search engines (7,500) and from deviantart.com (2,100). Again not only the new blog entries attract readers, there’re also some “evergreens”.
The Top 5 Posts in 2017 were:
1. Kara Bound – April 2014 – 307 clicks – ranked 1st also in 2016
2. The Victorian Corset Story Part II – 230 clicks – March 2017 (written by slave Flo)
3. Simploring 2017 (27) Fortress Mortice – 174 clicks – April 2017
4. Surrender Cove – 156 clicks – October 2016
5. Simploring 2017 (28) Maison de L’amitié – 126 clicks – April 2017
6. Sissy sold – August 2013 – 120 clicks – ranked 2nd in 2016, ranked 1st in 2015

This blog contains a lot of memories for Mistress Jenny and me and for the people close to us in Second Life. It started as a little diary to keep up with all the things happening around us in Second Life and has grown with time. In the meanwhile I read back myself often to look up a date or to check if I came across a place already before. The diary entries became also more personal and you could follow how my submission to Mistress Jenny grew and became natural for me, but you could also follow how much I enjoy to have her as my sub, as my property during my green lights. She’s still owned vice versa and that’s not going to change.
I have fun writing and it’s my intention to continue daily, if I find the time for it. Considering how much of our free time in real life is spent in this virtual world it makes sense to keep the memories like you do in real life. The memories are real and they stay vivid and present this way.
That we attract so many readers who follow our ways in SL makes me happy and motivates me.

Thanks again for reading and following my and our blog.
Have a great year 2018 in SL and in RL, stay healthy!

Simploring 2017 (101) – Fantasy Island and D o X Urben Gallery

31 Dec 2017 Leave a comment

Unexpectedly I found some time for simploring on Christmas day. I decided to follow Inara Pey footsteps again and visited Fantasy Island. She wrote about it in her Living in a Modemworld blog “D 0 X: an Island Fantasy in Second Life“.

The landmark description read perfect for me and my plans for my free time: “Come and explore this Winter themed sim with a picturesque walk through the woods or just let the atmosphere lead you to one of the many spots to sit and relax. Happy Snapping! This sim is part of D o X Urben Gallery, opening January 7th 2018“

Fantasy Island Overview

Fantasy Island consists of 3 seperate and quite lonely islands. You land near to a cosy residential house. Next to the landing point is an information board and from here you can teleport to the gallery. I began my visit walking and exploring the first island. There’s just this one house. It looks very cosy inside, most probably also because of the Winter outside. Paradox Ivory, the owner and creator, managed to capture the Winter feeling and the nature really well. Walking around and exploring is just fun. You will find some deers roaming peacefully and you’ll find cosy places to sit and enjoy the view. The sim surround is selected perfectly and fits perfectly.

Impressions of Fantasy Island – around the landing point

To get on the other 2 islands of Fantasy Island you can rezz a row boat, which I did. On the second Island (the main island) is a modern wind mill and another house with a large and cosy outdoor patio. Here all is prepared for a dinner party. There are also menu cards on each place and it sound yummy (how fitting on Christmas!). Around the house you’ll find another larger outdoor place to sit and talk with several people. The nature on this 2nd island is simliar to the first and again you can find more cosy places and nice views.

Impressions of Fantasy Island – the main island

The third and smallest Island is not inhabited. There’s just the ruin of a lighthouse, but you can look at the other two islands from here.

More impressions of Fantasy Island

Fantasy Island is perfect for a walk in Winter, for enjoying Second Life and for taking great pictures. Before I ended my visit, I peeked into the gallery, that will be opened January 7th, 2018. It is called D o X Urben Gallery. And it is not Urban, but I still need to find out what “Urben” means. Everything is prepared already for the opening. I also found a board announcing the first exhibition “Expansum”.

D o X Urben Gallery, opening January 7th, 2018

Thank you Paradox Ivory for sharing your sim with the public. You provided a very relaxed hour to me. I enjoyed my visit and look forward to visit an exhibtion at the D o X Urben Gallery
