(SPOT.ph) As if we needed another reason to want to go to Finland aside from the Northern Lights, the Northern European nation also gained international interest after being named one of the "happiest countries in the world" for five consecutive years. If you're curious (and jealous, honestly) about their formula for achieving happiness, the Finns are willing to fly in 10 people for free and teach them the endorphin cheat code through a four-day "Masterclass of Happiness."

The Masterclass of Happiness will be held from June 12 to 15 at Kuru Resort, which is located in the Rantalsami municipality of Finland. The looks of the luxurious resort alone will probably make any guest feel instantly happy. The classes will be led by experts that each focus on specific key themes: nature and lifestyle, health and balance, design and every day, and food and well-being.
