My Life Story and How I Got 10 Million Followers in 1 Year 

This woman is the definition of a “free spirit”

IM FROM AFRICA, AND I LOVE HOW U EMBRACED US, NOT TAKING US FOR CHARITY CASES, BUT ACTUALLY BECOMING PART OF US, IN ALL ASPECTS.

She is the most open and non judgmental person I’ve ever seen

I'm 64, living in Tanzania the past 2 years, before that Chile, before that Costa Rica, Kenya, Egypt and US/UK. You've made it happen! Yeah! Not always easy, but always worthwhile! If you come back to TZ, I'm in Tanga and a filmmaker.

I love how your parents supported you all the way. And that you even kept your promise of paying your parents back. You’re an inspiration.

This is what happens when u are optimistic and have an open mind. This lady's story is remarkable. She is fearless which has led to success!!! Well done darling!

Kind heart. Globe Trotter. You can't see any malice in her. You deserve everything. Keep enjoying. Be blessed.

My Danish father also ended up in Tanzania and now my brother works there . There’s a magical feeling about Africa

No matter where you are you will bring light to people’s life. I am nearly 60 years old in USA and you bring me hope in believing there are still good people…. Keep living the dream!

She's open-minded, fearless, well-spoken, and blessed with some good genetics. Hard to beat. Keep killing it!

I Love the fact that you young people from all different races and cultures are so open minded and connecting with each other all over the world. You're setting such a Great Example for all those who follow you and Ray. Love It. Keep up the Good Work.

I ve always liked you, as a Tanzanian lady it's lovely seeing a young girl from Denmark who liked my country enough to come and experience my culture... keep following your passion young lady, ❤❤❤

I'm from Tanzania 🇹🇿, I appreciate you for choosing my country to be your first traveling destination. Congratulations for your success.

I’m from Ireland 🇮🇪 and a huge fan, also I am 77 years old, but in my heart I am still 17. Love dancing! It brings me joy ❤thanks for sharing your adventures.

I'm a 74 year old great grandma, I am from rural California. I have watched you and Ray and enjoy all you do. Thank you so much for sharing how this all came about with us all. God bless you both and all who watch and support your channel. Love, Nana Pam

Africa is a welcoming continent! We have no time to judge, life is short so we make the best of the time we are given!! I get so happy to see people living out their passion it takes a lot! But good for you both!

She is such a gem. The way that she keeps saying “we”😊

Not everyone can be so lucky to do what they love. You followed your heart, no matter how hard it got. You kept at it and it brought you here! What a wonderful life you’ve created for yourself. Love your story.

I hate seeing tiktok dances but I can’t take my eyes off of your dancing, it screams being free and enjoying life and things you love, it’s really apparent in the way you move. Such fascinating story, thank you for sharing your dance with the locals around the world!

Thank you for spreading Africa POSITIVELY around the world!

The fact she takes in so much love from so many different cultures that most would be afraid to.. I see those babies smiling when they dance with her, it's amazing 😊

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

Waouh ! As a rythmic street dancer myself, I feel like I was meant to see this vidéo today! It comfort me in the fact that we cant go wrong with loving what we do and having fun while we do it😊❤ I can now just drop the fear of judgement and follow my bliss:) Many Many thanks for being such an inspiration Isabella! 🙏👌👍🥰☺️And Keep enjoying yourself no matter what😉🥳💃

I love Isabella's humble personality. She is so cute.

I'm a Kenyan..watching from Egypt...who is here watching 2024

I love how Ray appears in the end. I can't wait to hear your love story❤🥰🙏🏿

The world needs more people like you. You have such a beautiful soul.

I’m 70 years old and I love your videos, I’m from Australia and I really enjoy to see you dancing, may our Lord bless you 🌹♥️

I love how you really embrace the cultures of the countries you travel too and involve the kids and their skills as well!! You and your boyfriend have a beautiful energy… Hope you get to continue to do what you love!!

Your parents must be so very proud of you. You had your dream, you followed it & made it happen. You have such a beautiful soul people are drawn to you.That's why you do so well with your dancing & on the videos. We love to watch you dance together.❤❤

Who's excited too watch

That was one hell of a beautiful story. Keep making the world dance. Don’t stop, won’t stop.

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!

I'm 53. I live vicariously through this young lady!

I admire the fact that you found yourself and stay committed to your dream.

Thank you for choosing Tanzania 🇹🇿🇹🇿....we real appreciate..May God bless you

I’ve seen so much of your dancing videos on Facebook reels, and you really spread joy through your dancing, and now hearing your full story just warms my heart, I’m so, so happy for you and what you’ve accomplished🙏❤️

From Nigeria, we love you and your boyfriend Ray, we look forward to seeing you here and have fun. Keep the good work you're doing. ❤

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. Who could ask for anything more.❤❤❤

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

We are so proud of you Isabella. We are watching from the Bahamas. Love & Light for your wonderful journeys around the world.

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 RU-vidrs, 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 🩷

I have to admit, I was like who's this blonde girl in Africa. I would come across your TikTok s on RU-vid and I loved your moves but it still wasn't making sense to me. Now I haven't missed any of your videos after getting over myself and respecting your talent. After hearing your story today I have a new respect for you and what you do, what kept me hooked was your interaction with the kids. I love the work you and your boyfriend are doing and you have my support from Washington DC USA ❤

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!

This young lady has such a beautiful spirit. I love how you embraced the beautiful people and culture in Tanzania as if it were your home land. You are a true gem 💎. Much love from the United States 🇺🇸.

Genuine. Humble. Charming. Accepting. Fearless. Intelligent. Loving. Adventurous. Beautiful. Ambitious. Creative. Thankful. ❤ I love yours and Ray's content. I find myself smiling every time. May you both laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live. Love and support from Charleston, South Carolina, USA!

I see her on social media all the time and she gets slated so much! If they only knew all this about her, she’s such a hard worker, down to earth, fearless and dedicated. Well done 👏🏼

Oh my gosh ! Thank you for the back story. I think it's so awesome to see you live your life how you want to live. So many people are miserable, including myself,having to commit to a job they absolutely hate. Please continue living your life how you want. Don't get trapped by materialistic things. Enjoy and I'll continue watching you and your family!!

what a heart melting story and you can be SO PROUD of yourself! KEEP IT UP!

Different colours one people...thank u for embracing the positivity of the African cultures

I am a 60year old grandma in England. and I love watching your videos and seeing all the people and places you dance in !!

I'm 83. I love dance. I studied classical ballet , but loved dance from Spain, the Middle East , Southeast Asia, and Africa. I love watching you and Ray. Your dances bring back so many memories of my travels and dancing. Keep it up. Love💃 you guys. Don't stop.❤

Im 50 plus and I’m from USA and a Zumba instructor and have danced my whole life growing up in the streets of NYC. 🗽 dancing keeps you young. I have had injuries and a surgery during COVID stopped my fitness teaching career. I miss it terribly. Staying active in dance no matter your age is great for mind, body and spirit. Keep dancing 💃🏻

Wow you’re incredibly humble. I usually see people/influencers with millions of followers as “snobby” or “entitled”, without taking into consideration the hard work they put in.

So inspiring!! Your light is shining so brightly! Thank you for sharing it with all of us! ❤️

You are a lightworker you may not know it but your soul (higher self) does. The way you cross over cultures is part of your path to show people it can be done.

Im a 57yr old woman from Scotland and your video's dancing with Ray and those beautiful children brightens my day you have a lovely personality im sure your parents are so proud of you well done young lady ❤️

I just discovered your videos today and could not stop watching. I’m from a small town in the USA called “Denmark”. Very small, where everyone knew each other and liked each other and at 64yrs old I don’t live there now but my heart hasn’t changed. I love that you love no matter what. It’s the only way to live your life. Love one another❤ and dance is definitely universal, keep up the good work. Tell that boyfriend to put a ring on it 😂

LOVE videos like this! It's so good to hear about the struggles behind the success we all see.

Tbh your journey was so intresting, and i love that you followed your dreams and didnt let them down

I'm 82years old and I'm a fan. I enjoy watching you guys dance ❤

Your heart to work with the kids and to care for others makes you even more inspiring. You can see how much the kids and people in general love being around you. You come off so natural and geniune all the time. Im glad you did your timeline story. I really enjoy when you share behind the scenes.

RU-vid n social media has done so much to enrich people's lives. Im so happy for u

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.

You are like sunshine, everywhere you go , you brighten the place.Keep on shining young lady. The sky is the limit.

I am 62 years old and I had a similar story in that I found what I loved to do AND it paid well enough to raise five children, home school them and travel so many places and make so many memories! Such a beautiful life when you love what you do and it also richly rewards you in return. I "found" you today and I really admire your passion and your ambition, initiative, hard work and the joy you show when you dance! You bring so much joy to kids and people you dance with, as well as your subscribers. I know you can't read all of your messages (or even a fraction of them!) but I wanted to say this to you anyway. God bless you!

I’m from the United States and I’ve seen your videos pop up every now and then and I always find them very interesting. I can see the passion in your eyes while you dance and it’s amazing to hear that you’re continuing it not just Africa but everywhere else cause honey I’m pretty sure that’s what everybody would love to see you happy doing what makes you happy

As a Tanzanian, I extremely agreed with you, how we are always late for appointments. My family is the king of it lol We love you, you are so sweet and positive!

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

LOVE your energy, your personality and your story! Thank you for sharing.

I'm 60 years old, I'm from Portugal, and I just love to see your dance videos. Your free spirit, your dance, and your music choices brings joy and happiness to us daily. Lovely couple. Keep on ❤❤ Hugs

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 🎉❤

My 7 yo daughter and I watch you guys on a daily basis if able. You are a true INSPIRATION and have seen my daughter through some tough times. Her father hit her some time ago and he went to prison. She has had a hard time dealing with it and watching your videos helps her to get through the tough times. She tries to learn a lot of your dance moves and it is so super cute. Much love from Memphis Tennessee ❤❤USA

I stumbled onto one of your videos and watched your story. What an incredible young lady with an adventurous spirit. You have experienced more in your life than most 60 year olds. Keep that beautiful zest for life❤ You are gorgeous!

I LOVE YOU GUYS!! Listening to you is so inspirational, you're so authentic and you dance from a place of joy, passion and love, and that clearly comes across in your videos. Keep doing what youre doing!

Watching your dances and the people you do them with is inspiring and makes me happy. Thank you for sharing your life.

I'm 53 and absolutely love your journey. Keep dancing, smiling and loving. ❤

You are truly a wonderful human being. It's great to see that you are realizing and understanding that the world is populated with people who are different from you and yet share so many things in common with you. Never stop dancing!! Blessings to you and your loved ones.

I just found you and listened to your story!!! What a beautiful soul you are! Watching your videos and the happiness all around you makes my heart smile so so big! I’m a 69 yr old widow starting to travel around the US full time. I wish I was young and healthy enough to travel the world and see all of the beautiful people that enjoy life to the fullest. You and your boyfriend just radiate joy and humility. You are a power couple and probably dont even realize it! Keep spreading joy with dance, wherever you go. I’m happy you can do it full time now! Wow! Just wow!

I'm 77 years old in Copenhagen and am so proud of you, keep doing what you love best!

I have been following you for almost 1yr. You don't Ned a psychology degree Isabella. You have people already sorted! You "just get it" with all ages. Your "shorts" are my night time fix especially when I can't sleep. You bring sunshine, joy, happiness as well as music & rhythm into my "insomnia" space. I am 65 from Ireland🇮🇪. I never had the opportunity to learn dance but adore all music genres. I also love different African cultures. Could you put up a short video teaching us "old dears" a few basic steps. Keep on dancing Isabella & Ray. You & the children from all countries are so natural & joyous. 🥰💃💃

Thank you for sharing with others how when you are brave + determined in following your passion + the path will unfold. ✨💜

Thank you for sharing! It's about time people know you. And what you're doing!

Its so nice to hear your history Isabel. Your passion is beautiful .

Dance is universal, Isabella.....EVERYONE loves dancing. I am 64...I live in the USA and I worked in the motion picture business financing feature films for over 20 years. I really loved the entertainment biz when I was in it. I am now back home in the Midwest. I came across your videos like a year and a half ago and I was immediately taken in by you and your precious smile and the fact that you were in Africa doing this. Keep doing what you are doing....always stay upbeat and positive...don;t ever let negativity vampires suck the goodness from you. Always remember that "what goes around comes around" in life....I love your attitude and hope you both have great success in life.....

You are absolultey awe inspiring! I got these amazing goosebumps all over my body and had tears in my eyes when you said "it makes you so happy" when you went to Indoensia and people are just as loving and open to share the love of dance with you! You are incredible and spreading so much positivity and love wherever you go! I love to dance and you are showing the world that dance brings people together!! Love from an Aussie livin in Aotearoa (NZ)!

Thanks for sharing Isabell… keep on doing what u love best! ❤

24 year old from new mexico here and I’m so thankful to isabella for sharing her love of dance and Tanzania, truly spreading so much joy ❤️

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!

Thanks for bringing us along to see the world through your amazing outlook and love of life.

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.

I believe the reason why u find so many warm hospitable people is because u r a good person and for sure, from what I saw in the videos, ur boyfriend also is a really good person. As they say good people attract positive stuff. Love ur content, keep it up ❤

What a lovely, down to earth, genuine person she is. Her dancing videos are fantastic to watch and I love watching several times so I can see the other dancers and especially the dancing children! She sounds like she’s living her dream but is remaining humble at the same time. It’s been interesting to hear her story as I have always been interested to know how she got where she is.

YOU'RE AND YOUR BOYFRIEND ARE SO SWEET TOGETHER ❤ New subscriber. 🇺🇸 USA

I'm from Texas and I enjoy watching the dances you all do it brings joy to my heart you have such an amazing story for a young woman like yourself.To see the young children smiling and to see the culture is just beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

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

Hi IM Katheyjo from Oregon USA. I just love your dancing videos! IM 68 years old and a big fan of you and ray. You two are a breath of fresh air❤

Love this! ❤️ first time I’ve heard of you but love your story and now will watch your dances. Love your open mindedness and agree with the person who called you a light worker

This is inspiring!!! Keep doing what you love and let God lead the way and open those doors. With faith and determination, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE❤ Wishing you continued success and happiness Isabella!!!
