"Expats in the Shetland Islands, often appreciate the strong sense of community and friendliness of the locals. They enjoy the rich history and unique traditions of the islands, including the annual Up Helly Aa fire festival. The slower pace of life is also appreciated, allowing for a more relaxed lifestyle. The stunning natural beauty of the islands, with their rugged landscapes and abundant wildlife, is another aspect that expats love.

The local food and drink, particularly seafood and whisky, are also highly appreciated," commented one expat who made the move to Shetland Islands, Scotland.
