A woman has gone viral on TikTok for letting her followers know about lesser-known European places to move to - and it could even pay you a pretty penny.
The Scottish Sun reports that Monique Jones told her whopping 100,000 follow count of three interesting locations in Europe that they could emigrate to.
Known as @myfinancescrapbook on TikTok, Monique captioned the video: "Get paid to move abroad."

In the TikTok video, Monique described three different locations people could move to, as she described the incentive that each destination was offering.
She said: "These three countries will literally pay you to move abroad and the last one is my favourite.
"The first place is in Albinen in Switzerland. They'll pay a family of four up to £50,000 just because they have a declining population.
"Second place is Presicce in Italy [where] they'll pay you up to £25,000 because they have an ageing population. The final place is the Greek Island of Antikythera.
"This beautiful island currently has about 50 people living there, so if you decide to move there, they'll give you a house, a piece of land, and about £500 a month for three years."
However, there tends to be a catch about each destination. To be eligible for the Albinen move, you need to be under the age of 45 and a Swiss citizen - or have lived in the country for a decade straight.

The house you choose to live in also has to meet certain regulations. The property would have to be worth at least £180,000, and you'd need to stay there for another decade to remain eligible.
Those who relocate to the village will be expected to learn the German language as well. And if you decide to move away, you have to pay back the money you were paid to move there.
For the town of Presicce in Italy, local councillor Alfredo Palese is urging locals to try and welcome new faces in a diverse world.
Alfredo said: "There are many empty homes in the historical center built before 1991 which we would like to see alive again with new residents."
To qualify for the Italian village, you'd need to agree to become a full time resident and buy one of the properties built before 1991.
And finally, for the island of Antikythera, they annouced that they were planning to invite young families to join their community - after the population dropped to from over 300 people at the beginning of the 20th century.
The scheme was sponsored by the Greek Orthodox Church, who said they would pay the stipend for three years.
Greek families were offered priority, but the opportunity was also open to other nationalities. Since it has been five years since this opportunity arose, it is unclear whether the grant is still available.
However, a number of countries have schemes with grants and incentives to encourage people to move there, normally due to dwindling populations.
Some schemes offer cheap housing, like Italy's €1 houses, while other countries offer a monthly grant for people to move and work in their community.
For those looking to create a business of their own abroad, places like Ireland, Chile and Mauritius all have specific programmes that offer up to £40,000 in grants to get people in a starting position.
