Tropics Retreat

Tropics Retreat

A couple of weeks ago Mr Smith and I ventured to Kidaka Resort for a couple of days mid-week getaway.  I highly recommend this for a casual break but even more so this time of year when everywhere else, including my own region Snowdrops, is full of snow and wintery chills. It was partly that [...]

Oh, I Do Like to be Beside the Seaside

Oh, I Do Like to be Beside the Seaside

One of my absolute favourites annual events threw open their doors...as much as  beach can have a door anyways! Summerfest is always the perfect start to the Summer and this year is another stellar year for great summer items. I adore summer and the whole tropical vibe in SL...which is a bit odd as I'm [...]

I See the Sea

I See the Sea

There are many things that apparently we hand down to our children...some form their personality and some literally form their physical attributes. But, we all hand down sayings and things we learned as a child to the next generation. Little things like, when going on a day trip to the seaside, being the first one [...]

Life’s a Breeze

Life’s a Breeze

You're laying in a shallow pool of sunlit water. Your bottom half immersed as you lift a foot and watch perfectly formed drops of water sparkling in the sun, drip between your toes back into the pool. You have the perfect Pina Colada in your hand and as you close your eyes your senses pick [...]

Home Away From Home

Home Away From Home

 I love my sim. It really has everything I love...a beach, Tuscan villa, an office for me to work, a pool, beautiful seating areas to hang with friends. As the weeks pass and I collect new items I'm able to incorporate new areas into it...like this beach house area I added over the weekend. We're approaching [...]

Woodland Escape

Woodland Escape

Good morning! My daughter dropped a video into the family WhatsApp group yesterday...of her going 70mph down a zip line. She is my youngest daughter and her, and her sister, couldn't be any different in terms of their fear, or lack of, of adventure. The older one had a tantrum lasting 20 minutes when we [...]

First Snowflakes

Yay!!! Winter isn't just coming it has arrived! Well, it has at Chez Viiperi! Over the weekend I winterised home and originally I was planning not to Christmas it up just yet but then I remembered that Tannenbaum opened this weekend and there would be plenty of winter and holiday items to show you! Also [...]

Time Stand Still For Just a Moment…Please

Time Stand Still For Just a Moment…Please

Time goes so quickly when you are enjoying yourself or in good company. Yesterday was one of those days. It was a packed evening where we went sailing for the first time in a long while. I remembered how relaxing and how enjoyable it is, especially as we had invited another couple along with us [...]

Fall in Love with the Ground

Fall in Love with the Ground

"Autumn is the hardest season. The leaves are all falling, and they're falling like they're falling in love with the ground." Andrea Gibson Second Life is a lot of things right now...super busy, super exciting and super happy! I haven't blogged for a couple of days and have lots to catch up on but I [...]
