Sweden is the largest of the Nordic countries and a nation that abounds in natural beauty, with around 30 national parks, including Sarek National Park and Kosterhavet National Park, and 100,000 lakes. In addition, you can even spot the northern lights here during the right season. If you are in Sweden during the Midsummer festival, you will really enjoy the light-hearted festivities, including raising the Maypole and dancing around it. The locals also place a great deal of importance on ‘quality of life’ and 'work-life balance.’ As such, it is no surprise that Sweden is usually ranked high on the list of happiest countries in the world. With its serene natural beauty, Sweden is also a great spot for a bit of yoga to cleanse the body, mind and soul.
