"More people than ever are living outside of their country of origin: according to the World Migration Report, 3.6% of the global population are considered international migrants. Moving abroad brings both challenges and rewards, but one recent survey suggests a single factor is shaping expat happiness more than ever right now: money. Internations, a global community for people living and working overseas, surveyed more than 10,000 expats across 172 nationalities. This year, the countries that scored highest for overall happiness also ranked near the top in the survey's Personal Finance index, alongside strong results for quality of life and ease of settling in."
""I love beyond words being surrounded by this lush jungle landscape where we see toucans, monkeys, iguanas, agoutis, birds, butterflies every day," says Cari Mackey, an American who owns and operates Morrillo Beach Eco Resort. "Our area is so remote that we rarely see anyone else on our beach other than our own guests of the resort so, the waves are never crowded and the vibes are always nice.""
Internations surveyed more than 10,000 expats across 172 nationalities and found that personal finance is a key driver of expat happiness. Countries that scored highest for overall happiness also performed strongly on the Personal Finance index, quality of life, and ease of settling in. Panama ranked first out of 46 countries and placed in the top three across five major indexes, including first in Working Abroad and strong results in Expat Essentials. Panama attracts freelancers, digital nomads, and retirees with its natural beauty, outdoor activities, remote beaches, and abundant wildlife, though deforestation is a local concern and environmental respect is urged.
