Melanie Dower
Year after year, Finland is named the "Happiest Country on Earth". What's their secret?
If you ask a Finn, they will likely be as baffled as you are. That’s why Melanie Dower, an expat who has been living in Finland for the past decade, has taken up the charge. Her vantage as an outsider entrenched in Finnish culture uniquely positions her to identify the keys to Finnish happiness that elude the rest of the world and that Finns take for granted. From sauna to strong social safety nets, Finnish life is made up of a constellation of habits and structures that leave its residents relaxed, healthy, and fulfilled.
In this short guide, Melanie lays out the surprisingly simple and often accessible steps to living as the Finns do.

Contrast that with a nation where crime is virtually nonexistent, people are more interested in spending solitary time in nature and people are happy to pay taxes because the government has the transparency that people know and approve of how their money is spent.
Where there’s virtually no homelessness, everyone gets free healthcare, education and children are taught to think and problem solve for themselves, the people are free to enjoy themselves without the worry that one accident or illness will leave them destitute.
We could learn a great deal from the Finns.
