Coventry couple Jerzyszek Americans
Coventry couple Jerzyszek Americans. A married couple from Coventry have spent the past seven years living the life of Native Americans.
John and Pauline Jerzyszek, who prefer the names Running Bear and Small Warrior, live in a semi-detached house filled with dreamcatchers and animal skins, and even camp in a traditional wigwam.
"People are naturally intrigued," John told The Mirror. "Obviously the way I dress attracts a lot of attention but I've never had a bad reaction.
"All we want to do is share the teachings and help other people in life," he explained. "It's not an act. It is simply a different way of life."
"The journey began when we bumped into fellow believer Grizzly Walking Thunder," Pauline added. "We'd never go back to our old life."
The pair have said that their families are happy to accept their alternative lifestyle as part of who they are.
