POSTCARD FROM COSTA RICA
It has been a long time since I have blogged. Nothing really sparked my interest until today. If you know me in world, you may have heard me speak of “unexpected events”. Well, today I had one and took advantage of it. I came up on a place in Second Life worth sharing. For some odd reason this place is where I have always dreamed of visiting and perhaps retiring. The place is Costa Rica!
Ah Costa Rica! I was not expecting what I found. It is amazing and no words can really describe how beautiful the sims are. My landing point was at the land sales offices where I received a warm greeting from Giancarlo Takacs, CEO of The Costa Rica Sims Estate. His enthusiasm made me feel welcome to explore and learn more about the richness of his country represented in Second Life.
“25 Most Beautiful Places in SL”, Costa Rica is comprised of 50+ sims. There is so much to explore and you cannot see it all in just one visit. For your first visit, I recommend getting the Taxi HUD to teleport to points of interest. There are the national parks, ancient temple maze, rainforest, coral beaches, active volcanoes, waterfalls surrounded by lush vegetation. There are many activities for recreation such as surfing, water rafting, scuba diving, horse farm and garden center where you can go horseback riding, garden center, sailing, fishing, swimming and hang gliding. Whether you want a place to relax, explore, or have romantic outing this is the place to go. And do not forget to turn your audio on to listen to the rich sounds of natural habitat. Ohm, I forgot, there is the nude beach (smile).
I could not resist the shopping district where I picked up a few things I really did not need, lol. There is one shop you must visit if you have a thing for bears. It is called Sways Creations offering unique animated bears. Nowhere in Second Life have I seen bears like these. Also, there is Images by Sinclair, an impressive art gallery. I especially liked the piece called Rose Petal Woman.
I visited Cocos Island and hiked up the stairs from the beach to a beautiful setting with lush greenery and beautiful orchids and trees. Then I took the path over the bridge to look below at the lagoon. I found a great spot to put on my bathing suit, relax in the cool waters, and listen to the sounds of nature.
One of my favorite places is the Rainforest. There are plenty areas to sit and relax. You will be greeted by a few of the animals, insects from that region. Of course, I took plenty of snapshots but none are as good as seeing it for yourself. I recommend visiting the website Costa Rica sims to learn more about this beautiful build.
The spa and resort were my last stop. The resort is incredible and you can rent a place. I warn you now you will never want to leave. Seriously, with the estate lands and the resort rentals, Costa Rica is a beautiful place to live offering entertainment, recreation and romance. It is luxury at its finest that SL can offer.
If you have not visited the Costa Rica Sims then you must go! I guarantee you will not want to leave and there is not enough time in the day to see and enjoy all it has to offer. This wonder you will want to visit repeatedly. I plan to return!
