Hi everyone! I've been a tiki lover since I was a kid. My dad was stationed at Sangley Point U.S. Naval Base in the Phillippines back in 1965-6, and we had nothing but bamboo and tiki/tropical furniture and decor, and I've loved it ever since. Sadly, when we moved back to the US in 1966, my parents left almost all of the tropical stuff behind. :( I wish I had that stuff now! I've always loved tiki/tropical theme decorating, and have been meaning to do it for years in my own place. I am just finally getting around to it now, better late than never, I guess, lol. Anyway, I'm glad to find this forum, tiki things bring back such fond memories of my childhood for me. That was the only time in my life I've lived in a place with no snow in the winter. I hate winter! I guess if I had the money, I would consider moving someplace warmer, maybe South Carolina or Florida if in the US. My Uncle lives by Lake Okechobee in Florida, but I've never visited him. If I moved outside the US, I'd probably consider Guam. |

Hey there! My name's Keith. I'm 36 and live in NC. It's only recently that I've started getting interested in Tiki culture. I've been wondering about it for quite some time, but lately I've become downright obsessed with it. There's so much I don't know about it yet. I'm always discovering new things. It's so awesome. I've browsed these forums some, but wanted to become a member here. Besides Tiki, I'm interested in Lounge & Swing music, pin-up girls, cigars, cocktails, true crime, blackjack, spy movies (esp. James Bond, Derek Flint, and Matt Helm), Rat Pack (Dino's my fave), Burlesque, vintage sleaze, hot rods, Rockabilly, etc. It's good to be here. I look forward to getting to know you guys and learning/talking about everything to do with Tiki. Talk to you later, |

Hey Vampiress, Thanks for the welcome. I appreciate it. It's good to be here. It's also always nice to come across another fan of 007. I'll have to check out that thread on Bond. Sounds cool. Thanks for mentioning it to me. Oh yeah. Since you mentioned Bond, I just launched my own MySpace page. It's got some Bond stuff, etc. up there. Check it out if you like. http://www.myspace.com/roguespy007 Plus this will give you and anyone else a better idea of who this newcomer is. Once again it's good to be here. I can't wait to talk to everybody about Tiki and so on. Thanks again. Take care. :)

Hello Everyone! I live in Long Beach with my wife (Ratgirl on TC) and I have been lurking for awhile. A few years back we decided to remodel our new addition "tiki style" and we havent stopped there. Currently I am bulding a volcano in my front yard. It seems like a bad remake of Close Encounters of the Third Kind with the crazed plans for Koi Pond and Volcano fountain. We already are almost complete on the perimeter Lava Wall and four 200+ lb. concrete tiki heads that act as posts. If any are interested I will try to get a site together with some pictures of the progress. In the mean time I intend to get my tiki on and visit all the happening spots!

Hi there! Let me introduce myself. I'm Bastardo Saffrin, that is the nice spanish translation for you know what. I'm from Barcelona, and "los bares hawaianos" has been some thing that has always been there, but in the last months me and my girlfriend are getting into tiki stuff. Well, I just wanted to say hi and ask for something about orgeat, but I don't think this is the proper topic... Adios! |

Thanks Mrs Hoptiki for the welcome and for the compliment about my website. I'm just getting it started. I'm glad you liked the play list. I want to change and add some new songs. I want to put some more Tiki songs up there. I also want to get some more Rockabilly. Right now it's mostly lounge and swing music. I am glad to be here. Take care. Keith

Aloha tiki 'ohana! My name is Michael Breckenridge. I'm a journalist, photographer and sculptor. I've logged a lot of miles traveling the USA and living different places, but after 47 mainland states plus Hawaii, I'm pretty much settled in the Spokane, WA area. I carve wood and stone. I do tikis, abstracts, and world culture sculptures - like Easter Island moais, Corsican soul statues, stuff like that. Some of my pieces I sell, others I donate to art charity auctions to benefit my local community. I hope to have many pleasant conversations here. Mahalo for reading! |

(There lots of similar names on here, mind you, but if you have any control over yours, maybe think about it.....) Oh, and hey - Welcome!! We're happy to have you here, whatever you call yourself.

Hello everybody! I am a lounge-music/retro-culture/Tiki lover living in the Littleton/Highlands Ranch, CO area. I own a DJ company called Retrophaze DJs and my site is http://www.retrophazedjs.com . I also work for Pulte Mortgage and my wife works for Qwest Communications. I have a daughter who turns 7-years old soon! I play drums in my spare time (which I would love to make my full time) and I'm involved in Politics with the local Democratic party as well as ministries within my Catholic community of Pax Christi. In 2006 my family and I went to San Diego for a wedding and we visited The Bali Hai Restaurant for some authentic Tiki/Polynesian culture and food. It was great! I love San Diego! We stayed in an incredible Bed & Breakfast nestled in the hills amongst the palm trees and with a wonderful view of the harbor and Naval base. A great place to visit for the quintessential California experience (ala, old school coast town). Any way, we are looking forward to visiting the Colorado locations that promote Tiki culture and imbibing drinks with our fellow travelers! Specifically, we are planning to visit "The Castaways" Inn and Restaurant in Manitou Springs soon. Can't wait! Everyone have a great Summer of 2007! Remember, we only have a year-and-a-half until Bush/Cheney leave office! Of course, anytime between then and now would be preferable, but at least we have that to look forward to! God bless! P.S., if any of you are Progressive Rock fans out there, let me take this opportunity to put in a plug for the new Rush CD, "Snakes & Arrows". It's great! |
