Aloha! my name is Peri, I'll just start with saying that I've always liked Tiki and Polynesian themed stuff. I'm a native of SF, so there was always Trader Vic's and the Tonga Room nearby. I've also visited Hawaii and was enchanted by it. I wasn't really aware that Tiki had a strong underground culture until I heard about Forbidden Island, and then later about Tiki Oasis from a friend of mine in '12. I went to my first TO in '13 and loved every minute of it (at least the ones I can remember!). I had so much fun there and met so many new friends, as well as meeting new people at other events since.

So, here I am at Tiki Central, to learn more about all things Tiki, especially the history (I am a history nut). I'm a moderator over at reddit/r/tiki (a very low traffic subreddit, please come one by!), and this site should be a great resource for both.

Mahalo!
