I got an email from Lawrence W. over at Fly Thomas Cook in the U.K, who sent me this nifty chart on Sunshine & Happiness.  Check out the relationship between sunshine, life expectancy and satisfaction across the world. Some quick facts:

*– Sunshine doesn’t guarantee high quality of life but does bring health, riches and a full night sleep.

* Icelanders may only have an average 3hrs of sunshine per day with their dark winter nights, but they live satisfied and long lives!

*South Africa has an average of 10 hours sunshine per day compared to only 6hrs in Canada but Canadians rate their life satisfaction 60% higher.

If this doesn’t inspire you to a sunshine filled vacation, nothing will!
