#FriFotos: Where’s Your Happy Place?

Denmark. Singapore. Mexico. San Luis Obispo. Are these the happiest spots on Earth? In his book Thrive: Finding Happiness the Blue Zones Way, Dan Buettner explores these four places, identified by researchers as world hot spots in happiness—pockets around the globe where people report more happiness, enjoyment, interest, and respect.

As it fits with this week’s #FriFotos theme, we want to know what is your happy place– the destination that always puts a smile on your face; the one place you’d drop everything to visit if you got that free plane ticket. Or perhaps you travel there once or a few times a year because the excitement of it never fades.

What destination makes you smile? Share your happy place in the comments section below.

*What’s #FriFotos, you ask? It’s a weekly Twitter chat founded by @EpsteinTravels during which travelers share their favorite pics. Each week has a theme. Search #FriFotos on Twitter to see the latest submissions or tweet one of your own!
