Autobiography Was Born Cameron Jon

Autobiography was born Cameron Jon Keene in Aberdeen, Scotland on December 3, 1987. My mother, Yvonne, and my older sister, Danielle, were also born in Aberdeen, while my father, Morris, a petroleum engineer, hails from Havre, Montana. We lived in Aberdeen for the first seven years of my life, and traveled frequently to places such as Portugal, Lanzarote, and the Canary Islands. I attended the local Montessori school, Hamilton, when I was three years old, and at four and a half years of age, I was enrolled in Robert Gordons, which is considered one of the best private schools in the city. I enjoyed school and took an active part in sports, doing quite well in swimming galas, and winning many of my events during school sports days. I also played for a junior team of the local Grammar School Rugby Club and attended several Rugby International Games with the team at Murrayfield in Edinburgh to watch Scotland play against several other countries.

At age seven and a half, my family moved to Qatar, a small Middle Eastern country adjacent to Saudi Arabia. There, I attended a British School and made friends with students from India, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Qatar, Sweden, and Australia. One of my friends was a younger son of the Emir of Qatar, and I spent many weekends at his home. I truly enjoyed the time we spent in Qatar. I learned to Jet Ski and we often took our boat to nearby islands to play in the warm waters off the city of Doha, the capital of Qatar. While in Doha, I played tennis, soccer, rugby, and was a member of the local swim team. I went on several trips to Bahrain and Dubai to play in the Rugby Tournaments and while there, was able to see many of the leading names in tennis and golf, such as John McEnroe and Bjorn Borg, play in tournaments.

We lived in Qatar for four and a half years, and vacationed in Oman, Dubai, Singapore, the United States, and the United Kingdom. I had some very interesting experiences wandering around the souks of Oman and Dubai and the various areas of Singapore and meeting people from all over the world. These experiences gave me a better understanding of different cultures.
