As a greek, it's funny calling Crete tiny since it's Greece's largest island. I live in another Greek island and my mom also hand weaves and teaches classes! Nice to see that you enjoyed it, it is an amazing form of art.

Weaving is not a dumb thing to get excited about, and that rug is absolutely beautiful. I get excited about crocheting, finding new yarn, and learning new patterns or stitches. I think these things connect us to time past, when people made everything themselves, and took the time to make them beautiful.

Every time I finish an Isabel video, I have a renewed passion and appreciation for life and the great gift we all have of being alive on this incredible planet. Thank you for continuing to spark this in me.

I have never in my life seen such an adventurous, tenacious, talented, fearless young woman. Really!

After watching the video of you being interviewed about how you make your videos, I watch your work with a whole new appreciation for what it takes to post what you post. It almost takes away the enjoyment because I kind of know that most all of what our show is completely thought out, planed and carried out. Right down to the cloths you ware or, in this video, the cloths you didn't ware. All lovely and tastefully done. Keep up the good work.

Been following you for years and it’s amazing how you’ve grown. How comfortable you’ve become and what a pleasure to share your story. ❤

[joemeszaro]

Your videography has become brilliantly story-told art. Thank you for sharing your special journey through your eyes.

Love that you're exploring a different corner of the world to learn something new, especially Crete! It's on my bucket list.

Thank you for the remembrance of Crete. I was there in the 80's. I rented a scooter and went around the whole island. I slept on the roof of the hostel there, falling asleep to the stars and international people's conversations...I love that place.

I think the most beautiful part of isabel is how self sufficient she is. I am always in awe how she travels across the world on her own without any fear. I wish I was that self sufficient. Nothing to put her down nobody to cancel her plans. Thats the most beautiful feeling. This is the meaning of true life. To be able to go somewhere even if its in a tiny island across the world and do what makes you happy. Thats what life is all about I feel. Not sure if she would read this message but I really feel she is the most inspiring person in my life.

As a weaver and fiber artist, I am thrilled to see this! And can't wait to see more weaving this winter.

I took a break from weaving to watch Isabel's video while I ate lunch and here she is weaving. What a beautiful rug! I've been to Crete and other Greek islands. The handwork is unbelievable.

[lisacicconi]

That is awesome learning their weaving. The rug is gorgeous and I would hang it up too. It’s a piece of art. I love Logan’s answer on the cookies. He loves everything you makes and everything about you. So that was a real honest answer. Haha. I love seeing him in your videos too.

Thank you for showcasing my country in such a calm and leisurely way. That is life in the further parts of the islands and mountains, the rhythm slows down so you can enjoy each season. Also, what a magical thing to be seeing a floor loom used again. I own one from my grandmother and vividly remember her sitting and weaving rugs for my parents' house, daily.

I hope you had a wonderful time, Isabel! Make sure to explore more during winter as well, the terrain changes so much you wont believe you are in the same island once you visit during that time 💗

[cubfan]

The rug is really wonderful, what a beautiful island!💙💙🤍🤍

Another beautiful story! Love the pace, color tone, and peacefulness. There are parts of this where I felt I was watching a Wes Anderson film. Next level awesomeness :)

I love her videos they take you away and the life she lives is quite alive, freeing, and beautiful. Full of natural, organic, healthy adventures. Having a loving husband and family. It’s a blessing to watch and she is very fortunate to have and live this way… On another note i don’t understand when i hear that there is a struggle with mental health problems living a life like this. It doesn’t go hand in hand. This kind of living is absolutely healthy mentally. I only mention this because hearing the promotion in other videos of mental health counselors and listening to her when she talks about how she struggles with that . Like i said it doesn’t add up to live this kind of life and struggle with that . I’m not trying to be negative or mean . I’m just observing and I’m an analytical thinker . Living near water, taking cold swims, eating super healthy, traveling all over the world, building your own place, planting your own garden, exercising, and meditation, sewing, candle making, fermenting foods, and cooking, bread baking, making your own holistic medicines ( did i leave anything out)??? These are all things she is passionate about and doing. This is the ultimate of mental health…There should be absolutely no struggling. Plus she is surrounded by people who love her… I just get concerned when that subject comes up because i don’t want people thinking themselves into mental health problems. It plants a seed and then people start to wonder if they struggle with it. Or when it’s shared of some sort of issue going on that it’s connected to mental health.. Not all struggles are mental health struggles. They are just apart of everyday challenges which helps us all grow. I believe thats the way it should be viewed. Feelings come and go like the wind. Living your passion only creates a healthy mind set because you are living what you love. Anyways I hope everyone lives their passion and stays POSITIVE in their thinking.

"OH wait we forgot the groceries." LOL that made me laugh. Glad your best friend got to join you, on all these amazing new experiences. Also, that blue dress looks phenomenal on you :)

[reanagunter]

Your art never fails to enamor me. Your weaving, your cinematography, the dresses you sew. You are an alchemist of art. Thank you for sharing with us all. So much love

The rug you loomed is beautiful. What a wonderful experience to have under your belt and the month lesson this winter!
