Hi everyone! I'm Dan from Maine and I've checked this site out quite a few times over the years. I got into tiki back in 1997 when I first read Michener's Hawaii. That got me looking up Polynesian stuff online where I found Wayne Coombs' Mai Tiki website and I bought my first tiki.

I'm also an illustrator. One of my recent goals has been to post a Tiki sketch on Instagram for every day of 2014.

I would love to find more resources to understand Polynesian culture - I've read a lot of books, but I love hearing more about the myths from people more knowledgeable than I!

I also always love to see more carvings, more art, and more crazy drink recipes.

I look forward to meeting some of you!
