I live in a frozen tiki wasteland. (I just bought a snowblower last week, to get set for the long cold tiki-less winter). I do not know any other tiki people outside of TC. It has taken two years of constant thrifting and going to flea markets and yard sales to accumulate what Basement Kahuna obtains in one week. I do not even mention tiki to people, I learned long ago to keep my mouth shut about most of my interests (like punk rock and 50's kitschy stuff) because no one understands and they just think Im an idiot. I just tiki-up at home with a mai tai in a cool mug and some good music, and when my husband and I travel we try to fit in as much tiki stuff as possible.
