Did moving to a wealthy country not make you any happier?

Good evening everybody,

I'm writing a story for Weekly magazine about a new research study showing that people who immigrate to wealthier countries do not end up happier than they were before the move. If you are a Mauritian who has lived abroad for a while and find the topic interesting, please get in contact with me!

Hi Lina! Funny I should bump into you here on this forum. It's Nathalie (friend of your BIL).
I'm not a Mauritian that has lived abroad, but (for what it's worth) I am originally from a wealthy country (Netherlands) and moved - by choice - to a less wealthy country (R茅union) and it definitely made me happier!
