Hello TIKIGIKI, I am glad to talk to you. Thank you man, I am glad that you like this. Haha, yes that is a rabbit actually, we had two, but one died two years ago, so this one is left. This is probably different subspecies, as it has little smaller ears, and little bigger fur, so it can often cause misleads at first sight haha. davor This one looks more like a classical rabbit.

Oh, regarding tiki culture in Serbia... well, honestly as far I know it is almost non-existent. I may be the only one, if not in my city, in the country as well. We are a landlocked country, in temperate zone, yet to have something related to tropical islands. I have because I write about tropical islands, my blog has over 70 articles on the first page of Google (I will mention this more in my introduction thread, I forgot to open it), so I am an exception. We do have here tropical-themed bars, however, to some extent. There is one ,,tiki bar" on another side of my country, but it does not feature any tikis, no tiki mugs, no printings, totems... just tons of tropical stuff, actually a tropical bar. There are some tropical bars on the capital city's beachfront. In my city we have one jungle cafe, also one cafe bar that has coffees from Honduras, Nicaragua, Cuba etc... and something and that's all. But no tiki. Its almost an unknown word here. But yes, during the summer, a lot of people are wearing tropical shirts, and some even drink Sangria and cocktails in bars, and thats all. We also have Mexican, Chinese and other ,,exotic" food, and fish/nautical restaurants, here are tons of tropical-themed sweets and candies, and even alcoholic drinks such as rums, Captain Morgans, Malibu, Blue Curacao, and many others used as ingredients in some cocktails that you make. But tiki directly is not present, however, my friends and neighbors are enjoying in my tiki bar here, and tropical-themed music. Oh by the way, one thing that I cannot forgive myself is that we did have a tiki drink a few years ago (its name was just Tiki), and I never drink that, it got about 8 types of it, and each of them has a unique taste and color and different beach or island printed. We do have kon-tiki ice cream from the main manufacturer. And more or less that's all regarding tiki.
