I’ve had land that I’ve shared with my (RL) sister. It felt really good to have your own place to do whatever you want. Build whatever you want. Everything would have been great if it hadn’t been for two small parcels with 16 sqm land each. Those two parcels destroyed for all the neighbors since they filled them with ugly ads. It wasn’t even enough with privacy screens because the ads were very tall and high up in the sky. Can’t believe it’s OK for only a few persons to destroy for so many.
One neighbor has already sold off partly because of those ads. Two has put the land up for sale and I was thinking about it too. Went “window shopping” for land, but fortunately I didn’t find anything. Fortunately I say because one of the neighbors selling is a really wonderful person. First he offered to give me some land to let me have a more well shaped land. I had to decline since I can’t afford any higher tiers. But then I got this idea. What if we could trade land. He was selling anyway.
He agreed and we met to find a suitable land. We looked at places on his land in the same area as I had and another parcel he had as well. I wasn’t sure. Then he said that he wanted me to see another part of his land. As soon as I saw it, I knew this would be perfect. But I was worried. If it was perfect for me, then it would be perfect for a potential buyer. I asked if he was sure, and he said he was. He wanted me to have it. The next day, when he had removed his objects I got the land. He even made sure that he took over my land first, before I got his, so I wouldn’t need to pay tiers for the traded land. What a good person. Thanks Jed:).
I placed my two cottages and the new gallery/store I built. The new building hadn’t fitted the old land so it was the first time I had it out, except for the sandbox where it was built. I had prims left for trees, bushes, flowers and even a fountain. The new land has turned into a small paradise and I’m so happy. The gallery is at the first floor and the store is one floor up:)
