Like many other people, I've been lurking for a while here and am checking this treasure chest of information daily now.

I'm from Rotterdam, the Netherlands, coincidentally the home of Hollands one and only Tiki bar.
My girlfriend and I are flea market addicts and have been collecting 40s to 60s stuff since we've met, or better: stuffing our too small apartment with kitsch we don't need.

In April this year we finally had our dream come true, we found a 50s home bamboo bar for a reasonable price. We're trying to build our own little mini-bar in our house (but it's really too small here) and with my carpentry skills it could take a year or two.
When it's finished I'll post pictures, I promise.
It's really hard to find tiki related stuff in Europe though.

Other things of interest are music, movies & comics, you know, just your average grown-up kid stuff.
A while back I produced the Dorktones-podcast, that has stopped due to lack of time but I pooped out another two weeks back with some Hawaiiana thrown in.
