Take off for the happiest country in the world and come back... zen!

Even when we eat 5 fruits and vegetables a day, regularly practice a sport activity and are frequent visitors of the Parisian Spas, it’s seems unavoidable: the stress always pops its head around the corner. That's why we’ve looked for the happiest country in the world where the population has an impressive longevity rate. And this country is … Costa Rica ! Here you can fully disconnect from your hectic everyday life to return completely transformed by the positive energy of this charming place.

La pura vida



It is a tiny country, now rapidly becoming a very attractive place on the tourist plan. Not in the last place because research shows that Costa Rica is one of the happiest countries in the world. It shelters the Peninsula of Nicoya, one of the 5 " blue zones " in the world. But what is a blue zone? It’s a place where we all dream of, because it is a region where the population has the highest longevity, often exceeding the 100 years. Here in Costa Rica, like in Okinawa (Japan), Sardinia (Italy), Icaria (Greece) and Loma Linda in California, people live happy and healthy. What is the secret of these populations? No scoop, but ideal life conditions combined with an active lifestyle, plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables full of antioxidants, niacin and amino acids. In addition to this, calcium- and magnesium rich water, a little wine now and then and a family orientated social environment. Ideal conditions to reduce stress to a minimum.

Wellness destination!



Costa Rica has become a very attractive country for nature tourism and wellness. Over the past years, many luxury resorts and wellness orientated centers have emerged, combining international quality standards with warm hospitality, personalized attention and focus on local natural products. It’s the winning combination: good healthy food, and an active lifestyle with long hikes, breathing in the fresh air, climbing a volcano and all this when you marvel at the beauty of the ocean and the lush vegetation of the nature reserves. It will recharge your battery completely, giving you plenty of energy and the joy of living that the Costa Rican inhabitants express, will beyond doubt have its effect on the travelers. This 100% nature orientated country is probably one of the best cures to ban gloom and stress.
