A Documentary Expedition for a Happy, Meaningful Life
Future of Happiness
We gather entrepreneurs, creators, community leaders, visionaries and explorers from around the world to ask the one question that matters: what makes a person truly happy? In Costa Rica, you uncover your purpose, build real connections and become part of a documentary film.
A film about people who consciously choose the path of happiness, service and creation.

Our Mission
Happiness is not an accident. It is a choice we make every day.
It is born from the choices we make every day: awareness over autopilot, purpose over compromise, love over fear, and creation over indifference. Each of these choices, made again and again, is what quietly shapes a life worth living.
Future of Happiness exists to create spaces where people can hear themselves again, remember their true values and reconnect with their purpose. We gather entrepreneurs, creators, leaders and explorers from around the world, and in Costa Rica the story begins, before it travels to the Dubai premiere and beyond.
We choose the future. We create happiness.
Why Now
Technology Moves Faster. The Human Becomes the Point.
Technology is advancing faster than ever before. Artificial intelligence is reshaping the world, yet the most important resource remains the human being. In this new era, it is not those who know the most who thrive. It is those who understand themselves, hold their inner steadiness, and act in line with their values.
The New Way
- Living with Awareness
- Purpose
- Acting from Love
- Creation
- Knowing Yourself
In the new era, those who win are not the ones who know more, but the ones who understand themselves better.
The Documentary Expedition
Not a retreat. Not a conference. A living transformation.
This is a living experience of transformation, where travel, nature, leadership, wellbeing and documentary film become a single story. Every participant becomes part of the film and part of a global community creating positive change in the world.

The Transformation
Arrive depleted. Leave with purpose.
