I am the two: Andrzej (A.) and Martyna (M.). We work as graphic designers in our small studio. Apart from that, we develop our passions. For A. it is all about being the best possible guitar player in his progressive metal band called Spinalkhor (hopefully, one day you will see its poster announcing a concert and you will say: „oh, I know this guy”. Yeah, hopefully!). M. is totally into being a documentarist (which for her means writing reportages, taking photos and making documentary films), so she will be enormously grateful for each single story you will decide to share with her. We are still students (M. has to defend her master thesis in psychology and A. faces last term at Academy of Fine Arts to become a designer with a proper title). Once a year we leave our desks and plan a journey (that lasts around one month). After Australia last year, now its the time for the USA!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are far from being all inclusive tourists. What we would like to experience is seeing new places through eyes of locals. Our friends told us that Couchsurfing is a good place to look for such people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We cannot think of anything extraordinary that we have done so far. But when it comes to life challenges… M. acomplished 30-days Bikram yoga challenge and for her that was THE challenge. A. wrote 200 songs and none of them was ever played in the radio (a challenge here is that he never gave up writing, btw: during our journeys he is guitar-sick, so if you have this instrument at your place, just let him hold it for a few seconds).
