According to the World Values Survey, Puerto Rico is the world's second happiest nation. Yes! The people of La Isla del Encanto are filled with alegria -- even though their island nation is a 'commonwealth' of the currently unhappy USA. Coming in third on the happy meter is Colombia.The photo above makes clear why the people of Puerto Rico are so smiley: they're actually Taíno gods and goddesses, catching rays and taking refreshing dips into the emerald green sea. And we know about Juanes, El Pibe, Shakira and Gabriel of Cartagena. What more proof do we need?
The Happy Ten:
No. 1: Denmark
No. 2: Puerto Rico
No. 3: Colombia
No. 4: Iceland
No. 5: Northern Ireland
No. 6: Ireland
No. 7: Switzerland
No. 8: Netherlands
No. 9: Canada
No. 10: Austria
I'm Colombian and Juanes and Shakira really make me unhappy. I wonder how they measure happiness haha!
ReplyDeletePapa! Que rico es saber que Mi Islita de Encanto esta llena de gente tan feliz!! Dios nos continue dando esa bendicion ~ sobre todo que continuemos dando el sazonsito dulce a este mundo... Dios te cuide!!
ReplyDeleteYESSSSS!!!! GO COLOMBIA!!!!! Finally, it is so great to see Colombia on the list. COLOMBIA - Today it's the world's third happiest country in the world, but "cocaine" and "cartel" are traditionally more easily associated with Colombia than "carefree" and "contented." The change: Surging tourism and economic growth have accompanied the South American country's efforts in recent years to reassert control over its decades-old rebel violence and lucrative drug operations. Even though per capita income is far lower than in the top 10 countries, Colombia's literacy rate is 94%, well above the world average. And the ethnically tolerant country supports thriving coastal communities of Arabs, Jews, Italians, Germans, French, Portuguese, and Roma descendants. www.CNN.com reports...
