Hey!!!!

My name is Cameron Rowley. Im currently working at Rawlicious (a raw vegan restaurant).

I have a passion for health and well being - I studied Culinary Management at George Brown College and I am hoping to further my food knowledge at the Institute of Holistic Nutrition next year.

I have played lacrosse on a national level and I am currently training to be a marathon runner, and eventually pursue Triathlons!

I've been modeling for the past 4 years (on and off) - This is where i've found my love for exploration, pursuing adventure and learning to love the self.

I enjoy being creative and use Oil Paints as my medium. The subject matter varies but it has most recently been about self exploration/acceptance. I paint frequently in my spare time and for presents! I also have a great love for those whom express themselves through art mediums of any kind.

I would consider myself very open minded - I appreciate raw, free flowing conversation.

My dream is to become more unified with my desires, to become a more wholesome spirit and have a smile while exploring the beauty in people. My passion lyes in living in the moment, whatever the situation may be, and appreciating it all for its beautiful imperfections.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Right now, I'm looking for a place to stay in Ottawa for the upcoming Scotia bank Marathon.

In the future I'm hoping to travel the world and couch surf more. Im excited to meet more and more people and let the friendship bubble burst into abundance!

One day, when i have my own place, i'd love to share it with all walks of people who are in need :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I acted in Romeo and Juliette as Mercutio, in front of 800 people! It was a tremendous accomplishment that i hold in my heart. Growing with the cast, getting over my nerves and learning to drop my ego. What an experience! Id recommend theatre performance to ANYONE. You can really lose yourself and surrender to the moment - to me, the most beautiful way to live - which was fascinating.
