Woni Spotts has one of the more unique travel journeys you’ll hear. She traveled to 160 countries before the age of 19 as the host of a travel documentary shot from 1979 to 1982. However, the documentary lost funding for the final year of shooting and Woni didn’t travel much for the next 30 years.

That is until 2014 when Woni decided to finish the journey she started as a teenager, completing all 195 countries in 2018.

Not seeking any sort of fame or attention, Woni decided to bring her story to light upon hearing of another black female traveler marketing herself as the first black woman to visit every country in the world in 2019.

Listen to the full interview to hear why she decided to come forward with her story, plus:

  • How followers of Jessica Nabongo, who claimed to be the first black woman to travel to every country, attacked her online

  • Why she refused to talk to Jessica Nabongo

  • Her experiences traveling as a black woman and whether she has experienced any racism

  • Why she prefers the southern regions, including Patagonia, South Africa, and Antarctica

  • Growing up the child of professional musicians who traveled the world

  • Why it took her over 30 years to start really traveling again

  • The countries she would consider moving to…

  • And, her travel goals now
