When a place looks dead, it's good enough for Catherine.
Alice and Catherine visited their descendants
I didn't care much about their budget in the present, so both families have poor but atmospheric places of residence in the future.
Vehicles of the future
DigiBlast Show
The moon is rising, the night lights are coming on, and the show is going on.
Alice finished the starting quest, and the girls decided to explore the town by themselves.
The library looks really unusual, and Catherine fits it perfectly.
But Alice looks like the only bright spot here, even in the children’s room.
I like how she mixes the sounds of playing with foreign songs.
Oasis Landing: first impression
Oddly enough, that’s my first game in this town. And I have mixed emotions.
On the one hand, a central part of the town is beautiful and impressive. And the world looks really futuristic.
But on the other hand, all the food and drinks are synthetic. And the outskirts of the city are really depressing. There is a desert in place of the sea and lots of abandoned houses.
It looks like the world survived an ecological catastrophe, and it’s a bit scary. If this is a "normal" future, I’m afraid of what the dystopia holds for me. But I’ll keep playing, of course.
Thank you to @nornities and everyone who got me to 100 likes! Catherine and Alice arrived in Oasis Landing. I'm going to explore all the versions of the future, but the "normal" one first.
A basement for artefacts. I've built it for the things that the girls find in their travels.
And they will bring something new soon. We're going into the future! And I picked out appropriate outfits for that.
Probably, this will be the last longread here
I thought a lot about it and decided to change the format of this blog.
I have to be honest. I don't want to pretend anymore that there are many readers here and that someone really cares. A paradoxical situation has arisen — my subscriptions hardly match my subscribers.
For different reasons I unsubscribed from most of the Sims blogs, and I almost don't have mutuals here. For now, my favorite subscriptions are associated with my other special interest — bird watching. But obviously these bird bloggers are not interested in reading a blog about Sims :) If I had the possibility, I would make a blog with bird photos, but I don't have money for a good camera and binoculars. So my bird blog stays a fantasy for now.
So I don't have much enthusiasm to search for new interesting Sims blogs for myself. I just want to continue my blog so that someone can find my notes — and maybe we can befriend some day.
But I understand that I have to change the format. My present posts have too few readers. I could ignore this if I really enjoyed the creative process, but it's not true.
The long stories take a lot of time and effort for playing, screenshotting and writing, especially considering that English is not my native language. That's why making long posts feels not like a pleasure but like a duty, and I started to avoid it.
As you understand, I don't have resources for longreads anymore, and I have decided to switch to short notes in the future. Fewer pictures, less text in a post. Not a coherent narrative, just individual moments and beautiful screenshots in Sims.
I still want to keep my favorite Catherine and Alice in these posts. And I still want to explore various towns with them. These girls are too important to me — I love them. They are like different parts of my personality. Both of them look like how I wanted to look in different periods of my life. So I want to stay with them and explore with them not only worlds, but also myself.
Everything is transforming, it's all just beginning. Maybe somebody will want to continue the journey with us.

Some news about me
Hello there! I have to make a little pause in this blog, because I'm busy with something else. For now, I'm working on finishing a big fanfic in my native language.
For my safety, I don't want to tell all the details here, in the public domain. I can just say it's a complex psychological story about some unpopular premades from The Sims 2 world. But if you're interested, you can DM me, and I'll share more details about it.
I'm not going to abandon this blog. And I already have ideas for a new show series. But I have plans to change the style and mood a bit. Of course, it will demand some time and preparation. Here's Catherine and my attempt to make an ideal reshade preset for the show.
Also, you can watch my second blog with CC reblogs. I made it to organize the CC that I download for my fanfics. But if you find it useful, you can watch it here @pixel-stranger-finds
With best regards, your pixel-stranger.
University, day 5-7
Alice: Welcome back, our friends! Catherine and I started our fifth day at university separately from each other. The reason is our outdoor activities were scheduled at different times.
Catherine: Art lesson started in the afternoon, and my class was at an uncomfortable time – 8 a.m.! I had to wake up early in the morning, while Alice could still be dreaming.
University, day 2-4
Catherine: Hello again! We’re continuing our introduction to the university. Our study started on the second day. The first lecture was scheduled for the afternoon, so we were able to sleep well. We woke up quite late and slowly got ourselves in order. Then I browsed my textbook to prepare a bit for classes.
University, day 1
Alice: Hello, dear friends! Welcome back to our show, “The Sims Travelogue”! Today we’re starting a journey to a new place.
Catherine: This trip won’t be like the previous ones. We’ll spend a whole week in this town. And we will not only explore locations, but also study a lot! That’s because we’re going to university!
Alice: We’ll try to show and describe all the interesting features of the university town to you. So, let’s go with us!
It's time to share with you some facts about Alice McLaren
She was named after Alice in Wonderland.
Her image and character are inspired by Princess Merida from Brave.
Alice was born in Bridgeport to a family of businessmen, but she decided not to follow in her parents' footsteps.
When she became an adult, she moved to Monte Vista and worked for a few years as a cook.
After a business trip to France, she realized that she loves travelling more than cooking.
Alice has ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder).
Her main trait is Childish. She is curious, cheerful, and playful.
Kibbe type: Soft Gamine. Color type: Warm Spring.
Alice hates wearing heavy makeup and high heels. She prefers a comfortable and natural style of clothing.
I want to introduce you to my show hosts a bit more! Today, here are some facts about Catherine Fielding
She is named after Princess Catherine Middleton.
She got her surname after writer Helen Fielding, author of the Bridget Jones books.
Her image is inspired by actress Eva Green.
That’s the reason her special interests are Egyptology and burial culture.
She also studied Psychology at university, but she was thrown out in her first year.
Catherine has ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder).
Her main trait is Snob. She needs everything to be luxurious and of the best quality.
Kibbe type: Dramatic. Color type: Bright Winter.
In childhood, she had a dream to be a rockstar. But she doesn’t have an ear for music. That’s why she chose another way to become famous — and decided to be a show host.
