Morabeza

Howdy !

Morabeza is a word in creole from the islands of Cape verde in Africa. Cape Verde's official language is Portuguese. It is the language of instruction and official acts. However, the Cape Verdean Creole is used colloquially and is the mother tongue of virtually all Cape Verdeans.

Morabeza means our hospitality, our friendly way of receiving those who visit. I had the opportunity of visiting these islands irl and the people there are so kind that i never forgot the meaning of this word.

Morabeza is now also a virtual island for sale in second life with 65.536sqm and 3750 prims. Please visit

(Blue Aqua was sold - you can see the island shape from the previous post @ Morabeza)
