@imack,

Let me rewrite both.

I hope you are having a good time in this town.

I hope you are happier with every passing day.

I hope that helps a little.

@roger,

Thank you very much roger.
Now I a bit wonder if it is grammatical to use 'I wish somebody' followed by 'being/having' like I did.

It sounds odd because 'wish' is a word for things doubtful to impossible, that which is more in the realm of unreality. 'being/having ...' are expressions more in the realm of reality so they don't fit well together.

@imack,

You can say, "I wish you a good time in this town."

I think the second sentence works.
