Grammar question
 
Hi, teachers


Please, help me. Is there a problem with the sentence: "My dream is to live in a tropical island."?

I would suggest:
I dream of living on a tropical island.

ON an island is the most structurally acceptable sentence. If you use IN an island, it may suggest that you live underground.
