Those small ''houses'' stacked on top of each other that you saw is used for construction workers. They usually contain places for them to change clothes, eat lunch, small offices etc.
A lot of them also live there
it's called a pavillon
My old school has that because they were going to "rebuild", but ended up keeping them because they don't want to use money.
@Thomas H if you live in one of those small houses you probably work 14 days and then go home for 14 days

Hey Jermaine - I've been to Norway. Oslo is cool BUT Norway outside the city is just BEAUTIFUL! You should take a tour to the fjords!
Yes, that's absolutely true, and I am from Oslo myself. Visiting Norway and staying only in Oslo is almost like spitting on our country, in a way. We're not like Denmark where Copenhagen area feels like half the country or more, it's the complete opposite, Oslo is just a tiny dot in a huge country, with totally boring nature and vistas compared to what's outside Oslo. And again, I come from Oslo and even I say this...
Unfortunately Axel, our Jermaine has already left Norway. He's in the Sahara desert right now... Your country is truly beautiful! And I come from Israel :-)
I live there
MrElirecords im from Norway and that stuff is boring!
@@joakimm04 When you are young you usually dont appreciate nature and landscape. I was the same! I'm sure you will learn to love it too!
7:52 solar panels don't mean Norway receives a lot of sun, Electric cars and Solar panels mean Norway is a progressive modern country who has their shit together.
Curious Nomad "snap, snap"
Solar panel is more effective now, becuase of elon musk has bring the solar panel revolution. Solar panel now is much more effect in even cloudy days.
well guess how electricity is dervied in solar panels?!
Jesus max stop being so Aspergers, we're talking about relativity, as in compared to say Arizona.
haha okay
'Big building' xD
That's the norwegian castle/palace.
Jermaine just turn the duvet inside out, reach into it with your two arms, grab two corners of the blanket and then pull the blanket through the duvet towards you. This way you shouldn't be struggling anymore. :)
You have to admit though, it was somewhat hilarious to watch him struggle like that.
@@israteeg752 I loved it when he temporarily gave up and did the frustrated little routine, was great.
Jermaine i just watch 2 3 minute comercials before watching your video, without pushing the skip button, just because i really like what u are doing.
Norway Gang Where You At?
you cant really complain about having to make your own bed when you pay 30 $ a night in oslo. thats really realy cheap
the eternal struggle of man vs duvet cover!
It's weird that no one actually has seen housekeeping in hotels doing it, or asked how to at least the duvet cover. Usually, what they do, is that they reach their hands inside the duvet cover through the opening (usually always at the bottom of the cover in hotels), which is inside out at that point, put their hands in the far corners on the opposite end, grab the duvet at the corresponding corners, then just let the duvet cover cover the duvet with a shaking motion up and down, so the duvet cover becomes the right way out. You then proceed to make sure the corners next to the hole is laying correct inside the duvet cover. It's not complicated, it's just a matter of knowing how to do it; and I'm not and have ever been in housekeeping, though it was my brother who taught me it.
NorxMAL bro was that whole paragraph really needed tho?😂
Yes they are extremely environmental aware fro kindergarden and up. Go to Bergen, if you think Oslo is beautiful then train it to Bergen. You will not regret.
Bergen sucks, Tromsø for the win
for an actual experience, go to Lofoten.
bergen rain 24/7 yeet

Congratulations on country #41, bro! I'm starting to get used to your technique and traditions on your adventures: Starbucks, Internet for navigation/booking/contact, touching the ground when you get to every country! You live a blessed life, bro. Your vids make me happy. Keep it going!
The electric car thing is because 1.) the Norwegians have gone all in on non-petrol based energy sources including hydro-electric, solar and battery storage for transport. 2.) the government pays people to go for electric vehicles. Tesla's are one of the few 100% electric vehicles in the world and so this with the gov't subsidy is why there are so many of those in that country.
you forgot being completely dumbfounded and boring! The technique won't work unless these two handicaps are in full motion.
You forgot to add "not knowing anything about a place before visiting it"?
Hi Jermaine thanks for taking us to Oslo (via youtube) 😊 you inspire me to travel.
yeah, i think this country is trying to get off fossil fuels entirely
Yes. True. But it's one of the leading oil exporters.
mentuemhet it works in they're economy they're like what 6 million people and fuel prices are very high there as in all Europe compared with USA and Russia .
Your profile picture made me blow on my screen
Norway is trying to get everyone off driving cars. People that drive cars here have to pay tolls all around their own city just to get to work, or to the city :D, altough politicans dont have to pay a single toll.
We are focusing on more renewable sources, but we do like fossil fuels
All cars in Norway that has license plates that starts with EL, EK, EV; are electric cars. EL is for Electric, EK is for Electric Vehicle (Elektrisk Kjøretøy), EV is for Electric Vehicle. Why that is, well, EL and EK license plates is more or less been used up, since we only have two letters followed by 5 numbers, like EL 10000.
Seeing my capital city from your perspective was really interesting!
Thanks for bringing us along with you. Hope you had a great time here.
Cool video, but you would benefit from reading a bit up on the city youre visiting on beforehand. I’ll clue you in on some of the buildings you passed.
5:49 The Royal Palace
6.51 The National Theatre
7.30 Oslo Town Hall. This is where the Nobel Peace Prize is handed out every year.
9.25 Oslo Opera House
10.35 Construction worker barracks
Congratulations on fixing the duvet and the blanket :)
6:27 Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
i recently subscribed. i like how your videos are not typical "selling a vacation" and more genuine. you show a more realistic view of the places you go. keep up the good work!
Thanks
that ending part so hilarious
Lol
The stacked buildings are built for the workers at the construction sites, so that they have temporary offices and an area for taking a rest there.
That duvet cover scene may be the funniest thing I've ever seen Jermaine do. Determination for the win!
Some say he's still fighting with the duvet - but he'll crack it one of these days. Our prayers are with you bro. :D
Thank you Jermaine for your video! That was some funny with you wrestling with that bed thing! Thank you for the tour of sunny Oslo! You are so happy and energized when exploring new places! Thank you for sharing your adventures! Thumbs up!
Your vlogs are always Lit !!!
That usually means drunk.
Btw I really like your vlog format :-) it`s really cool to see you just drop into a place not knowing what to expect and see you exploring it :-)
I love your energy, dude! Keep it up!
Electric car gets free parking and fees
yea, they will stop with that before 2020
Great video! As a Norwegian I find it so much fun watching foreigners view on our country. Thanks for sharing!
That is a traditional drying fish hanger. Very common in the north
Hey! I live in Oslo and i love to see the city from your perspective! For your information, the big amount of electric cars is a result of something called: bompenger. The city and the areas around is parter into different sones. When you cross the different sones, you have to pay an amount of money, the bompenger. Since it is better for the environment with electric cars, the government has decided that the people driving them, dont need to pay when crossing the sones.
Kind of hard to explain but yeah:))
You and the sheets is comedy gold!
Great video! Loved watching it as a norwegian. Keep up the good work :)
I'm from Norway, but this video made me look at our capital from a different perspective. Thanks man!
06:12 He's not drying the street, it's a huge leaf- blower. He was just waiting for you to get away from being blown full of leafs and sand/dirt from the tarmac. The next building that you wondered was (the light one) used to be the police station in Oslo. Many Norwegians partisans were tortured and killed there during WWII. But I agree, it's a very pretty building. It's called "Victoria Terasse": en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria_Terrasse
Nice video! Greetings from Oslo! :-)
@the godness of a gansta No, you shut up! :-D
@the godness of a ganstaHysj" = lydord, egentlig gjengivelse av lang hvislende lyd (med lepperunding).
Victoria terrasse was built as luxury appartment, was used by Gestapo during World War 2 and now houses the Norwegian foreign minestry. 😊
@@the_oslovian Yes, I know Wikipedia claims that, but a pretty huge part of the building was the central police station until at least 1998. I know that because I then were at that police station and delivered a complaint. It was also common knowledge that the central police station was located there.
It's correct that a huge part of the building is used by the Norwegian Ministry for Foreign Affairs.
@@ThomasGabrielsen Wow! That's news to me! Thanks 😊
Keep grinding my Guy
All those temproary buildings are small houses for construction workers to have breaks in etc. If you noticed they were allways by construction.
Jermaine oslo is my favorite city if you go there in the winter and get the train up to holmenkollen in the hills its forests and snow really amazing!
I’m happy you visited Oslo, personally i think its the best city in Norway. It offers anything you desire, have beautiful parks everywhere and the city is big! You shouldve visited Holmenkollen ski jump, and Tjuvholmen! I noticed other people saying you should go to other cities, but i think u have a lot more in Oslo to explore !
I don't usually watch travel vlogs but I thought it was really interesting seeing a tourist perspective of the country, since I'm from Oslo. Glad you seemed to like the city
My tip to put on sheets... turn the sheet inside out, put your hands into the sheet find the corners.. grab the corners of the blanket/duvé/comforter, and unturn the sheet over the comforter... grab the other ends and give it a shake.. done... takes you less than two min.... you can do the same with the pillow.
That Opera House (9:00) where you saw the stairs is actually designed by a Finnish person. :) It is also a symbol for the collaboration and friendship of these to nations. Lots of love from Finland!
There is a video on UA-cam on how to put on duvet covers the easy way.
Norway seems to be spending their money wisely. Updating the infrastructure, upgrading heating and cooling, and creating new energy efficient buildings. Using electric cars. They have to since they are very close to the melting glaciers.
WTF? We have to use electric cars because we are close to melting glaciers? You know Norway is a mountainous country right? It's where the word fjord is from, as in we are not Denmark (which is very flat)! We also rely a lot on hydroelectric power; and most years we produce more electricity that way than we use ourselves.
Why there is a lot of electric cars in Norway right now, is because they are much cheaper, both in buying them and using them; not to mention several benefits, like no road toll on roads that have them, free parking many places, free charging while parked in Oslo many places and ability to use the collective lane, but in rush hour it has to be 2 people or more in the car some places and more. Many if not most of these benefits will eventually be phased out. Fossil fuels are expensive here, even though we are a oil nation...
Nice shots of Oslo - picture perfect. Enjoyed the video!
hahaah I am dying, you make making the bed seem so complicated. for next time, turn the cover inside out and just find the corners of the cover on the inside, grab the corners of the duvet and turn the cover right side over the duvet, done in like 30 seconds hahah
its actually really simple you turn the covers inside out and Reach in and hold the ends and from there you just grab the ends of the duvet then you just let go of the cover
Oh my word, my girlfriend knows how to put the blanket in the sheet perfectly LOL!!!! BRO, I have to do that every time I do the laundry and I hate it. Lol
Oslo definitely a most beautiful city!! Thanks for showin us around. And thanks for the commentary on stuffing a duvet into the cover. Thought I was the only one who wrestled with that! Still, I'd sure move to Oslo any ol time! Namaste. my friend
Thanks
Im currently living in Oslo and its very interesting to look at Oslo through your eyes!
Multiguru Haien xd
i liked seeing this video footage. keep going 🤞
lol @ making the bed! Turn the sheets inside out, put your hands inside and grab corners of the blanket and fold the sheets over the blanket!
If you ever come back to Oslo, you should walk along the river that goes thrue "akerselven" :)
Jermaine, always enjoy following you around the world. Could you tell me what was your vlogging rig on that day? Thanks.
Great 👍 vlog Jermaine really enjoy
Hey Jermaine, started watching your videos to hear about your Task Rabbit experience and I'm super impressed with your hustle. How are you editing videos on the go? Definitely need to get me one of those Go Pros...the image is incredible. Cheers from Berkeley.
Thanks for the video, but ended really abruptly. Is your chain Balinese silver?
Nice vids dude! Sincerely a Norwegian :)
glad to see you liked Oslo. next time you visit, maybe one of your Norwegian fans can give you a more detailed tour of the city.
Norway is really expensive, but Norwegians earn much money. I live in Norway, it is a really chill country.
Wow, the sky is so beautiful!
Hi Jermaine.. 🤣🤣 i just cant stop laughing on this video on your housekeeping skills🤣🤣🤣 thats one of the reason why i always watched all your great vlogs visiting the world😍
Which city do you like more, Zürich or Oslo?
Subbed since u visited my country! ( first vid i watched from you btw)
The reason for all the Tesla´s is beacuse the government in Norway pays about 50% of the car if the car is electric, you also dont have to pay taxes for driving into oslo etc. you can also use the bus and taxi lane if your 2 people in the car on the highways.
My dear city!!!! Ty for sharing!!
Dear boy, how did you manage to afford Norway. My family live in Bergen, and when I go there I find it very expensive for a Brit like me, but the country is real beautiful and clean and safe and polite.
Those smal buildings they stack on top of eachother are "apartments for workers so they don't have to travel home if they came from a long distance! :)
6:34
It’s where builders sleep, so it’s way more easyer to go to work. The building is right where they work.
So did you prefer Oslo or Copenhagen?
What’s your favorite country and city so far?
Headed back to Norway this year. Looking forward to hitting up some other spots in Europe, then ultimately I wanna go to Africa, but I need some good advice.
It's cute that he's wondering where all the people are - they're AT WORK, probably! :) It looks to be early in the day, and after the morning rush hour it gets pretty quiet for a while. And if he was here on a weekend, early mornings on weekens are also pretty quiet everywhere until 10:00 when stores open.
dude ur funny... I like ur vlog! the housekeeping game is for real tho haha!
Yo yo Jermaine, what's up mane. You need to come out to hawaii your be blown away by these views out here
The small "houses" stacked on top of each other are where the construction workers often live while working on a project as most of them come from eastern European countries.
The “stacked” houses are worker houses where the builders have offices etc... :) (that’s why they are at construction sites ) :D
I luv this travel show this is the best
Jermaine from what I was told when I worked in Norway from a co worker who was Danish but was married to a Norwegian women that it is roughly only about 10% of the land that can be constructed on so yeah they do need to have a lot of construction where it is an option but the space between the opera house and on the other side of the street has changed alot since I was there since it was in one of the buildings behind there where I worked
The electric cars are quite common in Norway because they get a lot of benefits compared to non-EVs (no VAT, ...)
Those barracks stacked on top of each other are temporary housings for construction workers.
Either the "stacked-buildings" are for students or for the workes who works on the new buildings and structures...
Some of those stacked buildings are temporary hourses for construction workers.
Fun fact. You can easily see if a car is electric in Norway by looking at the license plate. If it starts with an E, it`s electric.
Those small houses you saw stacked are for the construction workers to sleep, eat, have meetings and offices for their leaders
Building behind you ~6:50 is the national theater, the names on the front of it are great theater-writers
Hope you enjoyed Norway
18 dollars?!!!!! I know Norway is expensive but that is EXPENSIVE! We can get those in LA for $8 😂
Zerg Cerebrates Yup.
you can imagen what we pay for gas and the tax just to own a car
Thats a pretty normal price for me
Yeah Im from norway, ITS like super expensive and if we are going to sweden we are buying lost of lost of candy cuz it cost like nothing👍🎃🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴
im norwegian to ,but 18$ for a bowl of rice peas and carrots is not a good deal :)
You missed out. When in Norway you should also gone to
Ålesund (My home town) (Buildt in a special style popular for turists)
Geiranger (for awesome mountain and waterfalls)
Trollveggen (Europes talles cliff 1700 meter from top to bottom of the valley)
Trollstien (A narrow road that snakes up the mountain side)
All these spots are quite close to each other. =)
Small buildings are for construction workers. They're used as break rooms, wardrobes, offices etc.
And IMO Oslo is one of the more boring places in Norway. The other major cities are all beautiful, but the nature is probably the biggest reason to go to Norway. Especially the fjords and mountains mostly in western Norway. A great trip if you're here for a week would be to take two or three days in Bergen (2nd biggest city), a few days seeing different fjords in Sogn og Fjordane (a region north of Bergen), back to Bergen to take the train to Oslo. The trainride in itself is something quite special, and you get to see so much of Norway, but it takes seven or eight hours and even Norwegians find the trainride expensive compared to other ways of transportation (fun fact: it is often cheaper to take a plane from Bergen to Oslo than the train, and the plane ride in itself only takes about 40-50 minutes depending on weather). The trip ends with one day in Oslo before leaving.
As a Norwegian, I think this is the best way to experience what Norway has to offer. If you're going during the winter though, I'd take the trip to the northern part of the country, where you have quite a decent chance of seeing northern lights during your stay, but the sun won't be there until spring.
I like feeling the air as soon as I arrive to see if it feels different to other countries. Sounds weird, but I have felt weird air in some places
Huge fan & I gotta day u are humble
You are so funny! Great video!
Yeah i know its a lot of Teslas but here in Norway its pretty popular im live in Stavanger btw
Hello from Romania! I think you shot with GoPro 7 Black. I'm new to your channel.
If that's hero 7, I am ordering one today. Can someone confirm?
Nice vid bro. I come from Norway
You should publish a travel ebook. Your perspective of being an adult who finances his travels with gig economy income is probably unique. You could also include which cities are good/bad for eboarding. I saw a documentary about two young men who started the only skateboard company in Egypt. American skateboard movies were their inspiration. The have a small skateboarding group, at least one young woman but their group get odd looks.
In the summer when its nice weather outside, Oslo is STACKED with people. That street you walked with the «car-leafblower» is almost over crowded
What a fun video!!!!
Yeah the cranes at the opera house is the «never end project» that The politicians in Oslo put up years ago 😂😂 also the pretty brown brick building you saw is the city hall in Oslo
The Opera is made of marble, it reflects sun like crazy.
That big building with the soldiers outside; home of Queen Elisabeth of England's cousin aka King Harald of Norway 😉 and the building with the two towers: city hall. 😊
As soon as you go out of the coty you can se bigger houses and almost 0 electric cars
