The Greek islands are renowned for their beauty, stunning scenery, and rich culture, making them an incredibly popular destination for tourists and expats.
An expat who has lived in Greece for the past 30 years has shared the positives and negatives of life on the islands.
Sherry spoke on YouTube (@AegeanDreams) about the "glorious scenery" across the Greek islands.
She said: "It is so beautiful. From my house, I can see the bay below. I pray I never have to live without the view of the sea again; I love it."

GETTYFor retiree Sherry, the slow pace of life "suits" her, and she thoroughly enjoys the "relaxed vibes" of the island of Salamina.
Sherry explained: "I like to go slow and enjoy things, and at this point in my life, I am able to do that.
"I do not have the stress of traffic; we have hardly any here apart from a small amount on weekends."
As well as the slow living, the expat loves how quiet life is, with there being "almost no noise".
She said: "I have a little wind chime, and I can hear it with the slightest breeze because there is no noise. You could hear an olive or a lemon drop."
Another massive plus for expats is the "very cheap" cost of living on the island, which " might surprise" individuals.
The expat noted: "Owning or renting a house on the island, except if you are talking about Mykonos or Santorini, is very cheap.
"Your daily expenses, too. I can go and sit in a cafe and have a wonderful cappuccino for €1.50 (£1.27), which is cheap."

PASherry did admit there are cons to living on Salamina, such as "limited job or business opportunities" and the lack of services on the island.
The expat stated: "Having fewer services, such as hospitals and health care, affects me a lot. You won't find the top doctors. We have good enough doctors, but knock on wood, I never need to see them.
Sherry explained that "there is a limited amount of shopping" on the Greek islands, and certain stores are only on the mainland.
Another expat has shared "the biggest mistake" he made when he moved from London to Nafplio in Greece in 2010.
