EDITOR’S NOTE
Whitney Wright booked her first-ever solo trip from her home in Oklahoma to New York for four days in January 2016.
“Just to see if I could do it without anyone else’s help,” recalls Wright, who at the time would only travel with her ex-boyfriend. “If thousands of people can figure it out everyday then I better figure it out, right...
“So I went to New York and I loved it—I loved it so much. So after that I was like if I could do New York, then maybe I can try somewhere else.”
She looked up Belize, a small country on the northeast coast of Central America. “And then I went to Belize for six days and then after that it just took off from there,” says Wright, who launched her porn career in September 2016.
Now she’s part of a solo women’s travel group on Facebook and has visited more than 20 countries by herself in the past six years while at the same time becoming a quadruple threat in adult entertainment.
“I wish more people would do it,” Whitney says. “... If I can do it, anyone can do it. If you want to, don’t put road blocks in the way.”
She tells me her international travels have made her wiser and kept her grounded. In July, she went to Guadalajara, Mexico, for the first time to shoot her AVN cover at a penthouse overlooking the city.
“It makes me appreciative of other countries. It makes me see other countries in a new light,” Whitney says. “I always am going to fantasize about just selling everything and moving to Marrakesh or somewhere in Mexico or something. But also it makes me really appreciate here, too.”
