Travel blogs are played out. Dime a dozen these days. But what about a travel blog by someone touring the virtual world? Taking photos along the way to share with you, showcasing the astounding vistas to be found only at the intersection of silicon and human imagination.

My first entry in this series features creations of VRChat user “Yayoi”. I’m told that’s a Japanese name more commonly used for girls than for boys, but I have no other clues as to their identity. All I can say is that they’re a master of Unity, in particular crafting gorgeous looking worlds that nevertheless perform very smoothly despite my decrepit Core i5 CPU.
The first of these is called Yayoi Forest House, seen below. Japanese architecture from antiquity (don’t ask me which dynastic period please) is a visual treat with a bright red soribashi offering passage across the creek, or a vantage point from which to appreciate the majestic waterfall.
