Hello, my name is Christopher and I am a happiness and wellbeing expert. This is my blog and website, where I share ideas about happiness in a frank and honest way. 

I’ve been involved in happiness and wellbeing professionally for more than 15 years. Initially, as an academic researcher, obtaining a PhD in 2009 from the University of Warwick, UK, going on to publish 25+ peer-reviewed academic articles, and then later as a consultant at BiGGAR Economics helping businesses understand and enhance their contribution to societal wellbeing.

However, I also have a fondness for journeying for happiness. This began when I left my academic career to spend 18-months cycling to Bhutan. I wrote a book about my journey to Bhutan, which weaves in research on happiness and happiness insights I could never have learnt as an academic. You can see some reviews here and get your own copy here. I sometimes give talks and interviews about my work – be it my research, my cycling journey to Bhutan, or more often than not combining both. I’m always happy to get asked.

This website acts as both a blog to generally share ideas about happiness and wellbeing and provide an overview of some of the work I’ve carried out over the years. Take a look around and if you would like to find out more then get in touch. I am interested in contributing to the creation of conditions that foster individual & societal wellbeing and keen to work with others who want to do so.
