The country I know best besides my own is the Netherlands, because my husband is a citizen there. And it's my opinion that Dutch people are happier because they have a much better work-life balance, don't have to worry about being bankrupted by an illness because everyone has affordable high-quality care they like and because their food is generally of much higher quality than ours. There are some other reasons, of course, but those are the big ones I see. They have a better social safety net, too. I think about 90 percent of my anxiety would melt if I could relocate there. If only I could pack up my kids and grandkids! I'd be gone tomorrow.
