This woman is the definition of a “free spirit”

[@ronchism6435]

I'm in my 70s. And, because what I've experienced on this planet, I PRAY, PRAY, PRAY that she can STAY a free spirit. There is a saying of Prophet Muhammad's: "You should go through this life as if you're just passing through." My teen years in the U.S. were the very opposite, because there was so much social turmoil then. TO ISABELL AFRO: STAY AS YOU ARE!!! NEVER CHANGE!!! Continue to dance yo ASS off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@talicbronze2319]

Indeed, a free spirit. I completely agree with you !

So true. 💜

[@SamanthaP48]

That’s literally why she went. Did you not listening to the story? She paid (some outland is some of money trust me because I’ve looked into it) they target these first world nations from usually rich/upper middle-class white women. Then charge insane amounts of money for them to go out there and build houses or sometimes spread gospel. ((OooOoo yes they are usually groups of like 20+ so The individual is organizing these things are making like $200,000 in a month and they build like one house for a poor family)) They live in small tents essentially and give the “volunteers” almost nothing to eat. But they pay $7-10,000 to go out there for something like six weeks. Yrs ago that was the cost I’m sure it’s probably higher now. (((this money would have gone over 1,000x further if had just sent it to individual families & projects))) The point is that you’re paying for the experience and a post a bunch of photos on your social media about how you care about the world and you’re helping people less fortunate than yourself. For that same amount I was able to build wells for 3 ENTIRE villages & a school.

So I had no idea that other people in my age range were fans. 64. Tennessee USA 40 years older than Isabella. I have been disabled half my life. I got hooked when Isabella was dancing in the street and the caption was almost got hit by a car. These videos bring so much joy to me. I get the thrill of travel and joy of dance. I can't wait for the how they met and fell in love video. Because, Isabella and Ray have also reminded me of the joy of young love. The way you two look at each other when you dance makes me happy, it feels like you were meant to be. I start my day watching a few shorts. Isabella and Ray dancing starts my day , and its the last thing I watch at night. Before finding you I spent so much time watching news and that was mainly politics USA . Thank you for saving me. I was starting to have high blood pressure episodes watching my countries crazy. Keep it going girl. You got something special and a special man to share it with you.

I’m 50 years old and live in Australia 🇦🇺 and I love watching your videos, they are not just for young people! Us older folk, like to live vicariously through your journey. It’s fascinating to see how other people live their lives, and it often sparks me into thinking how I would live if given another chance to be young again. I definitely would have travelled before starting a family, and seen more of the world. I have only travelled to America and ended up living in New York for 8 years. We are home in Australia now, and I wish I had the money to travel, but I don’t, and I can’t work to earn money now either. This is where watching KZbinrs, fulfil a tiny part of my dreams, so thank you for sharing. The next best thing to travelling yourself, is watching someone else do it, the internet can be a wonderful thing. Much love and respect 🩷

Isabell, I had seen some of your videos before, and I came across this video of how you ended up where you are. I absolutely love your heart for people of all backgrounds and the way you connect with people. You are such an inspiration, and I am thankful that when I see you, I do not see color, but rather a young woman with a gift. God has blessed you tremendously! I also want to commend your parents. When you stated that they loaned you the money to travel, I realized that they had set you up to be responsible and self-sufficient. The fact that you went back to Denmark to work to pay them back is commendable. Here in the United States, there is sadly a culture of entitled children and young adults with no vision, no sense of purpose, and no desire to work hard for what they want. You show to the world that you work hard to have the life you desire and that you don't do it on the backs of anyone else. I believe that God created each and every one of us for a purpose. We can not try to tell others what their purpose is or should be, but we should strive to know what WE OURSELVES are here for. I have to say I believe you may very well be living in your purpose, that being to serve as a beautiful, kind, and loving bridge between cultures and continents. I applaud and respect you, and thank you so very much for sharing your story and your gift with the world. Melanie E. Beasley The Bona Fide Beasley

I'm truly blown away! You are so positive, you don't even mention the negative comments that you might have received. This is a life lesson and the proof that if you do what you truly love, you can get far. Wish you lots of success and happiness!

[@Msbeautywithin1]

Follow your dreams and don’t give up. It’s like planting a seed, you watch it grow from seed to a beautiful flower 🌸. I love your story how you didn’t make money at first and had to travel to Denmark to work and earn money to survive but all your hard work paid off. Good job to you and your boyfriend. I love you both

From the USA but moved to Europe for good! I had a similar experience as far leaving my own country in search of something different & it was the best experience I ever made🎉Many blessings to you!

Love watching you & Ray with all the kids❤️💯🔥

[@veruschkapate5115]

You create global unity through dance, that is absolutely beautiful in an age where we need more unity.

[@tuneinwithTamara]

Just a TRUE STORY of a person following their ❤, creating a life of their dreams, which we all tuned into because it’s beautiful to actually witness… instead of doing what we are SUPPOSED to do. 🎉 I freakin love this story.. can’t wait to see more. You are the epitome of what people are seeking! Happiness. So much love to you and Ray! You both deserve every bit of positive energy that flows to you. I love you both.

Your positivity and gratitude is contagious and beautiful! So glad you are a big force on social media. Our children need role models like you on the internet, wholesome and fun!

[@MrGivesuccess]

i love Afro dance. I sometimes feel like in a past life i was alive in Africa. The music makes me move. I lost 50 lbs dancing around my home bf covid but gained it back :-( ... I love watching you and the kids dance. They are very creative with new moves and ideas. Keep up the great work and keep dancing!

[@jamescannon3123]

Isabell, I am so "Happy" for you and "Proud" of you. For having the "COURAGE" to live and Love life on your own terms. Continue to "EXPLORE" the World with your man and create these wonderful experiences with him. These MEMORIES will last a lifetime and filming in these locations will be immortalized for all of us on KZbin. Thank you, Lady! I'm a 55 yr. old Fan in Austin, TX USA

I just turned 72...have always loved dancing since 4 yrs old...arthritis has knocked me down a bit these days. I love watching your videos, you make me smile and bring me much happiness keep up your beautiful dances and videos 🎉❤

[@mitzibonebrake318]

I'm 60 and me 2 all of the above. You are inspiring and I'm so proud of you and please that your life is working out be safe sweetheart And ray too

[@beaulieuc8910]

you can still dance in even a wheelchair... I saw a ballet dancer who only had one leg and she was dancing, I suppose you have to do what you can

[@evoxpop2088]

You are making millions of people happy...is your destiny and the best part...music and dancing have No Boundaries🎉❤😊

[@11stirling]

Isabelle, your story is inspiring. I first saw you in your shorts (I don’t normally watch shorts) but there was a spirit in you. When you find your place in the world you shine. That is something that everyone should learn. It’s hard to take that leap into the unknown but if you’re brave and committed it reaps the rewards. Well done.

[@madalenagoncalves657]

I lived in South Africa (Durban ) for 12 years. I'm Portuguese and living in the north. Love your dancing and your videos. Brings back my childhood memories! Thank you!! 🙏 ❤👏👏👏

[@elainelindsey1306]

Durban is amazing, so many different cultures and the cost of living is much lower compared to other provinces in S.A

[@Lulu-kt6gr]

I lived in Paris (from CA) when I was 18 and your story reminds me of being young and adventurous. You are an inspiration! Stay centered in your heart ( but I don’t have to tell you that.) All I can say is Great Work and Bless you both.

[@masonwhellington5946]

This was very uplifting and beautiful!!! You followed your dreams, endured hardship, but remained focused. Hard work and dedication, May God Continue to Be with You and Bless you and Your Handsome Boyfriend 😊😊

[@weirdhousewivesclub]

Isabella, finding your channel, you spread joy. It's rare to find people who just bring people together and spread joy like that. Seeing you and Ray get to live out your dreams and do what you love is amazing! Can't wait to see where you dance next!

[@cherylwertheim7249]

You are spreading love, that is your true story. And it has no boundries.

[@vmk5697]

You and Ray bring so much JOY! God bless you both! Keep spreading the light and love!

[@tanyadimartino1266]

I have found your story and love it! I am from USA and truly have enjoyed your content. It does bring you to a happy place and somehow live vicariously through you. Keep on dancing on…you and your man are so cute. No matter how famous do not forget your roots.

[@masterofwit339]

To now know the herstory behind this amazing artist paints a very clear picture of just how determined and creative she truly is. I remember seeing negative comments about this “white girl” using Tanzanian culture to promote her videos and immediately thought how judgemental that was. And that is exactly how & when I became such a massive fan- by taking the time to click on her videos (and then Ray’s) and falling in love at first sight. Isabella (& Ray’s) dream is being lived out right in front of us and I couldn’t be more excited with each new video drop. You two lift so many spirits just by being you ♥️ Can’t wait to hear about how you and Ray met one another!

[@cozyhobbies_]

You’re so right like they didn’t know she’s been dancing since a child , where her love for Afro dance came from, her basically living in Tanzania for years before moving there and embracing the culture. People watch a two second clip and accuse her of stealing etc 😂 it’s a beautiful story of realy putting in effort to reach her dream ❤

[@PanamaLiveGoodonaFarm]

What a beautiful story! Your dancing puts so many smiles on my face daily but hearing your story sharing your passion and perseverance is pure gold

[@marcstango1481]

Isabell, your a great story and a phenomenal person. Keep inspiringly us with your dances!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Hello Kathyjo, I enjoyed your comment. Well, you are around my age, LoVe this amazing woman's video's and you live in Oregon. I absolutely love it down there! I am here in Washington.

[@DelaliYao]

I love your open mindedness. Waiting to hear how you met Ray.

[@mich648elle]

Isabel, I cried so many tears of happiness for you while I watched this. I am Canadian and also have been living and travelling in a foreign country (Honduras) and fallen in love with it - so much so that I decided to start a massage therapy school here. I relate so much to what you say (especially the thing about punctuality 😂). Keep living your dream girl. I love your honesty, your openness, and your authenticity. Xoxo

[@bambiber4722]

That's brave

[@mich648elle]

Have you even been to Honduras? The islands of Roatan, Utila and Guanaja are extremely safe.

[@SummerSun-sg3wf]

Honduras has the highest homicide rate

[@mich648elle]

Most of Honduras is perfectly safe, and while it does have a high homicide rate that is amongst locals…

[@Orlanzepol123]

@@SummerSun-sg3wf and there are no crimes in Africa?
