Gemma Cleanslate at Otium
By +Gemma Cleanslate
I really needed some quiet and solitude, so I went looking for a place to relax and found it! There is a delightful sim, Serena Long Cay, made just for relaxing and looking at the sea.
The place seems to be the philosophy of the owner, Franz Markstein. He looks at Second Life in a different way. He has tried the parties and other activities of Second Life and says,”I like come here and to have something that engages my mind and makes me forget the stress of real life, I tried to do all what is possible to do for me, for my skills, now it was time for a place to relax myself, not very demanding in the management and where people can relax too.“ The name he gives to the area is Otium, from the Latin meaning leisure. And so it is.
There are beaches with relaxing chairs where you can sit and gaze at the ocean. I found a boat and went for a ride along the shore line. I walked the beach and took a snorkling tour of the glassy waters, then rested and enjoyed the sun on my face. I encountered others just hanging out talking. I ran across a greedy game almost hidden behind the cliffs. Climbing the hills I found a lovely drop in place where there was refreshing watermelon on the counter and sat down for a while to enjoy. Another person, Drem, came in to play the pinball machine there.
Just looking out on the sim is relaxing and I really enjoyed my time recovering from the business of the past weeks. I ran into an old friend, Purplebutterfly Lykin who is a fellow blogger and there doing a travel series. I recommend getting over there and making a landmark so when you are feeling the necessity for a few minutes alone , or with a friend to relax and enjoy , this is a good place to go.
