This sub region is known for its strong culture and history in Northern Europe. This place denotes Sweden, Norway and Denmark. Sometimes more narrowly to the Scandinavian Peninsula.
We people experience terrible things more than good things. Being a traveler, I always live searching for happiness, and always one question hit my mind, “what thing makes me happy”? I always got the same answer “the satisfaction.” The satisfaction of doing anything. You are doing wrong or right, bad or good. If you did not get the confirmation of satisfaction, you’d not live happily.
People want to get the pursuit of happiness. What circumstances make the people happy, which could be subjective or objective aspects, like physical health, can be measured and compared?
I am going to talk about the Scandinavian people. They are the happiest folks on the planet. But how? Because the Scandinavian countries are the most successful and wealthiest societies on Earth. A high level of education, health care and safety, exceptionally makes the folks happy.

On the other hand, Scandinavians trust each other. Their community is vital due to their social contracts. They fulfill the responsibility of taking care of the health of one another.
The helping of each other bond makes the Scandinavian people the best in the world. The most important social time of this place, folks, is “Fika” time which means “coffee.” When they like to take coffee, they drop everything, and I observed that they do not use the phone but interact with each other because they do not like to mess with Fika time.
