World’s happiest country Finland offers free trips to Nigerians, other nationals
Six-time world’s happiest country Finland is opening up the world’s first masterclass on happiness to “find your inner fin.”
The Nordic country is offering free global trips to 10 people to take part in its four-day master class on happiness, which will be held in the Finnish Lakeland region from June 12 to 15, 2023, at Kuru Resort.
Hosted by Visit Finland, participants will not have to pay a dime, while people who do not qualify can participate in a free masterclass available online later this summer.
The Finns believe Finnish happiness is a skill that can be taught, and citizens from all countries are welcome to apply until April 2, 2023.
The two-phase application includes filling out a sign-up form and completing the social media challenge.
The winners will be flown in and paired with knowledgeable trainers to help them develop a balanced lifestyle that fosters “happiness the Finnish way.”
Winners will learn about themes such as nature crafts, food for the soul and body, exercise in forests and lakes, calming sounds and music and the Finnish way of life.
