CURRENT MISSION

To use my powers for good!

ABOUT ME

I was born on April Fools Day in Baltimore, Maryland and that says a lot about a lot. I recently asked a friend and former roommate how she would describe me and she says I am fearless, quirky, inquisitive, unique, genuine.

PHILOSOPHY

Feist: "We'll collect the moments one by one, I guess that's how the future's done"

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am very new to Couch Surfing, but am open to meeting up with anyone visiting the DC, Baltimore, Annapolis areas.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I will let you know!

Centres d'intérêt

Favorite interests include roadside attractions, thrift stores and hand-me-downs, the history of consumer culture, the outdoors, folk art, the reducing and reusing parts of the cycle, typography & hand lettering, jogging, craftism, volunteerism, and sense of place.

I work as a graphic designer at a small design studio in Silver Spring where we deal exclusively with non-profit organizations. You can see my personal design portfolio at www.heybattabatta.com!

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I can never get enough of 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.' Rolling Stones always can get me going and I do think Malcolm Gladwell is a great read.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I was able to witness the joy of community and openness at the Chatham-Savannah Citizen Advoacy's covered dish supper (look 'em up!)
