If you take all your values and look for a place that represents them , ideally where would you end up and why? https://www.forbes.com/sites/duncanmadden/2018/03/27/ranked-the-10-happiest-countries-in-the-world-in-2018/#72f9f31c73e9  A mighty leap over its Scandinavian neighbours from fifth to first, Finland’s 5.5 million residents enjoy more forest per square mile than any European country, extremely high environmental standards, and a very low threat level making it one of the most peaceful places on Earth. With a high ratio of immigrants now also calling Finland home, the World Happiness Report made particular mention of the consistency in happiness between them and local born residents.

Among the currently existing societies, only the American and Swiss societies are strongly appealing to me - but compared to the ideal society, even they do not deserve much credit.

The ideal society for me would be a lack of society. It would be fully self-reliant individuals who do not form any sort of a default organised structure. Something like many sci-fi authors' vision of the future where every man has his own spaceship, can land on any planet, mine it for resources and build a new civilisation.
As a kid, I loved Star Wars movies, where Han Solo was absolutely free, with a ship that could fly anywhere he wants. This is close to my vision of ideal style of living.

Every time I do a cross-country road trip, where I drive wherever I please whenever I please and just explore the wilderness, I feel like I become 20 years younger. Being able to make a road trip into a permanent lifestyle, and having most other people do the same - that would be as close to heaven in my eyes as it could get.
