Hi! I'm Cam - born and raised on the laid-back West Coast of Canada where I've lived, learned, and worked all my life. Currently live in beautiful Vancouver, BC, with my partner Rosie (i.e. the girl in the pic!).

Love the outdoors (hikes, bikes, skis), am an avid ice hockey and squash player, and enjoy good music, good reads, and good laughs with friends. Recently finished graduate school and spent a couple years working in research before deciding to switch to a clinical profession, so I'm presently beginning medical training as of Fall 2018.

Look forward to meeting you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Really enjoy traveling and meeting new folks, but don't always want to be on the hostel circuit. Plus, like most people, wherever possible I'd prefer to see a place through the local lens.
