Nepal, a poor and backward country with a high index of happy life, is called a paradise for the poor. Due to economic backwardness, most of the roads, power grids and mobile phone networks here were built with the help of India and China, while India and China have underdeveloped industries and few high-tech industries. The roads in Nepal are the worst I have ever seen. Even in Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, most of the roads are shabby, potholed and dusty.

There is no real expressway in Nepal. Most roads have only two lanes, so cars can only drive slowly. For example, the journey from Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, to Boccara, the second largest city, is only about 200 kilometers, but it takes six or seven hours by car. In addition, the network signal in Nepal is also very poor, and it still stays in the 2G era. Sending a photo may take a long time, and finally you will be prompted that sending failed. The water supply and power supply here are also unstable, and water and electricity are often cut off.

High index of happy life

Although Nepal is poor and backward, the people here have a high index of happy life. Their life is slow and they cross the street slowly. They have no concept of consumption in advance, no mortgage and car loan (many houses are century-old houses), and their life pressure is small and easy to satisfy. They are optimistic and cheerful about life and have a peaceful face. They seldom suffer from road rage, depression and mania, even when they treat strangers, they always smile.

Children here can run around the street, cows here will run into the street, monkeys will run into residential areas, pigeons will fly everywhere, and here we can see the harmony between man and nature. Perhaps it is precisely because of the backward economy, less contact with the outside world, relatively closed, and no comparison psychology that Nepalese people have a high happiness index.
