About Me

Well I'm a Jamaican and Norwegian, lived in Norway while I was a baby and grew up in Jamaica till I went to college and worked for a bit in the United States. I now live in Norway again in the capital Oslo since summer 2014.

I've been around the world and have had the chance to experience many cultures. To this day I still love traveling and that has caused me to love trying new things, meeting new people, etc. Love me a social setting!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As stated above; I LOVE traveling so by association, I love to meet others who love to travel and would love to meet people who are similar and offer a helping hand (or in this case, couch) to those who need it when traveling to my current city of Oslo. You know and vice versa, for when I am traveling to places that are not my home.
Hope to meet some of you cool people soon :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: My favorite book is The Secret, I won't go o a rant as to why I love it, but I'll tell you in person if you ask, & I also love Stephen King's novels.
Movies: Having me list my favorite movies will take too long to wrote but my top two genres are horror and comedy. I also love Disney renaissance.
Tv: The Pitch, Shark Tank (
Music: As for music I'm eclectic but if I ever want to have a good time I love house, dance, trance do pretty much EDM, but recently very much into Jazz.

I love media on a whole, so anything that entertains.

Food: This is impossible I love most foods I try, but since I'm away from home I miss Jamaican food like crazy!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I launched an exciting Social Media campaign called KickJannic back in 2013 that I am very proud of:
In efforts to get hired in USA while being an international student I had to get creative due to the limited options available as a non-citizen.
​
I chose to create an out-of-the-box CV because these days that took the concept of Kickstarter but reassembled to showcase my resume and skills. It was picked up by media outlets across​ the world landing me tons of job offers. It was one of my proudest achievements.
Check the campaign out here if you are curious: ​http://www.kickjannic.com

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a lovely 200cm by 200cm sectional couch that can hold two people easily and comfortably as well as willing to share all the things that one would need when staying at a friend's apartment. I assure you; toilet, shower, fridge, stove, etc. will all be accessible to you. :)
