The island world of the Aegean Sea is both fascinating and incredibly diverse. Each island has its own charm and character. The film travels to the Greek Cyclades island group and visits five islands. Along the way, viewers meet people whose love for their islands is tangible.
Ikaria, in the north-eastern Aegean, is known as the island of 100-year-olds. It’s one of the world’s five “Blue Zones”, where people live to an exceptionally old age. Sifnos is the foodie island. Greece’s most famous cook and cookbook author, Nikolaos Tselementes, was born here on this western Cyclades island and it’s no accident that it’s a place where food is important — on Sifnos, traditional Greek cuisine is interpreted in a modern way. Kimolos is a small island that’s also home to the 95-year-old captain Augusti Galanos. He’s the archipelago’s most famous resident. Polyegos, with its wild goats, who all have names, is the largest uninhabited island in the Aegean. And Mykonos, the jet-set island that everyone knows, still holds plenty of surprises.

It's a beautiful life. Let the Germans work and give money to lazy, corrupt Greece. A beggarly people.
Post on dw hindi in hindi too…
Why Work …?
When you can get all that financial assistance from EU … milking them like cows 😀😀😀
I dont know about this island but I have been to crete and rhodos and people especialy old ones dont look healthy to me even in smaller vilages. Most of young people are overweight and old ones are allmost all fat.
It's because you own a house a farm an asset which we don't have so no stress enjoy life
Such ignorant comments, banal stupidity
What's the name of the song at 00:51?
The choice of villages, the music, the storytelling, the locals, the restaurants…beautiful❤❤❤❤❤❤
Magnifique, très très joli, bravo😊
Οι Γερμανοι ειναι απο αλλου, δεν τους αρεσει τιποτα στην Ελλαδα, τους εχουμε δει πολλες φορες, καλυτερα να μη ερχονται καθολου Ελλαδα
The years won though, are taken away from the state's policies…
I love this country, since I was 15, I have been visiting this beautiful paradise.
The name of music which use it at 6 minute in this documentry please ?
Mykonos from the airport to the port is 10 minutes distance and €50 by taxi 😂😂 probably the worst place in Greece 😅
Mykonos and Santorini are too overrated. Nice to visit once only. Icaria sounds like a stress free vacation ❤❤
In Corfu I tried to found good restaurants but all I visited serving bad food☹️ everything is reheated and not good. Maybe its for foreigners ?
The irony that Germany caused the xaos in Greece ! Migration of greeks to make a dissent living away from their land. Now you make money, and you expose my beautiful country for what for who …ah you got money I forgot.
I'been in Zakynthos nice island 🤌
It’s on my wish list, bucket list, dream list and everything else 😊
Oh my God! While I was watching I thought I know these people, walk the streets of islands, swim, just enjpyed the views and music and stories. Thank you all who created this video from the scratch to the end
Is it safe? Any thieves?
Nice docuentary
bullshit german documentary… as a greek i couldnt watch for more than 5 minutes.
Amazing job with the music!! ❤
The place is beautiful I would live there
I love solitude,peace,fresh air, organic food,serenity
Guuys… the choice of background music 😢❤… the best
Beautiful islands, Greeks are lucky❤
Clear water in Greek islands, Italian Amalfi Coast, but the waters around Bombay/Mumbai are always muddy because everything is dumped onto the sea and the creek around Mumbai waters 😮
There is NO sewage processing before the clar water back into the nature 😮
All over India, the sewage is dumped into the rivers, lakes, and sea around, and that is coming from almost 25% of the world population 😮😮😮😮
Kudos to the musical choices, they fit the context of the video so well. I felt nostalgic like I had been at Icaria when I heard M83- Wait
wow DW. So well made. A joy to watch
asfand?
Καλωσορίσατε στο παράδεισο!!
Music playlist is on point
Greece the Light of the World ✨️
Wise People and beautiful country ☀️ 🙌
