At least we’re in the top 20 lads…
All that sunshine must have had an effect on our brains this week as Ireland has been ranked 18th in the list of the world’s happiest countries.
Switzerland topped the list of the happiest in the world, followed by Iceland, Denmark, Norway and Canada.
The remainder of the top ten included Finland, the Netherlands, Sweden, New Zealand and Australia.
Ireland came in 18th spot after the United States (15th) and Brazil (16th), while the UK just missed out on the top 20 coming in 21st position after the United Arab Emirates (20th).
This is the third report on world happiness since 2012.
Gallup polls 1,000 people per country each year in order to chart their satisfaction with their lives.
