Hi there at TC,
Over the weekend I thought about an introductory note but it's as simple as that: My preference for 50s and 60s design and living paired with a yearning for the South Pacific myth inevitably have led to become a tikiphile. With the membership in TC and a recent subscription to Tiki Magazine I openly confess to it!... Also I hope now to gather all current development(s) in Polynesian Pop better - especially those that are taking place in Europe.
After my first trip to Hawaii in 2008 I started to become obsessed with the idea to open up a Hawaiian cultural center (offering hula and ukulele courses, surf band gigs, tiki mugs swap meets etc.) in my hometown of Frankfurt/Main in Germany. But if you knew this city you can imagine it's only a crackpot idea!
Finally, please forgive me if I am not posting a lot and be rather a passionate but passive member of TC (which is by the way the first forum ever I am registered to!).
Aloha and all the best,
Andrea
