According to the World Happiness Report that was published by United Nations, Norway has been among the top five happiest countries in the world every year ever since the first report of 2012.

Despite having extreme cold weather and dramatic darkness in their never-ending winter, nothing seems to bring them down. Their consistency in the rankings is nothing short of remarkable.

You might wonder what is in Norway, which is not in Disneyland. Clearly, they have to be doing something right.

I have been living in Norway for a while now to claim that these reports are by no means a joke. I have learned so many things in Norway that influence my life notably.

I am indeed happy now.

The World Happiness Report

The happiness rankings have always spurred worldwide interest among people for wanting to know how their nation is performing in the rankings and to see if there’s anything they can do to improve their lifestyle.

Happiness is measured based on a survey that considers six variables GDP per capita, social support, healthy life expectancy, freedom to make life choices, generosity, and perceptions of corruption.
