Measuring travelers’ happiness

114 vacationers participated on a survey about measuring travelers’ happiness. We examined if perceptions of happiness and good mood differ between tourists from East and tourists from West and whether people associate happiness and good mood with different feelings as they become older. Eastern tourists associate Peacefulness with good mood more than Westerns do and the exact opposite relation emerged for feelings of Calmness. Tourists that had visited museums before the survey seem to be at better mood compared to tourists that engaged on activities like sightseeing and the opposite is true for entertaining activities.
