Hi, my name is Reagan and I live in Huntington Beach, CA. My mild hobby for tiki has turned into an obsession...so here I am. It first started five years ago when my boyfriend, now husband, first moved in together and built a tiki bar and we started collecting mugs and wall art. Since then we've moved into a house where we are in the process of converting the entire living room/dining area into a tiki paradise(I'll post pictures at some point). The funny thing was that just as our obsession was building steam my husband was laid off from his job of 20 years, spent a year unemployed and when he finally landed a job it was with Hawaiian Host(there LA factory)! We swear that the whole process was just meant to be and were no longer down in the dumps over him losing his original job. His new job means he gets to visit Hawaii frequently...and I try to tag along when I can!

We love a good Mai Tai...one that's not made with juice! And my husband is always trying to concoct new cocktails. We have two silly little chihuahuas that we spend most our time with while sipping on cocktails, listening to Exotica in our tropical paradise of a home.

I'm here to meet like minded people, find out about events and learn a thing or two about tiki!
