"Look to your childhood dreams to find your passion in life. Mine was visiting foreign lands. Globalnista is the only leading travel club where the founder still travels with most of her members, simply because of the joy of seeing smiles on their faces.. "We have a family of wonderful local guides that are like beloved aunties and uncles who watch over my babies, but there is nothing like the love and attention of a mother, even one that birthed an idea for an industry.   I still love being with our members for all the magical moments that happen on tours—the laughter, the tears of happiness, the surprises, and the ah-ha moments. I want to be there for them all."

-Fleacé Weaver, Globalnista

​

Globanista is a private boutique travel club for fun-loving travelers. As a child, founder Ms. Fleacé Weaver dreamt of traveling to foreign lands. Fleace was nicknamed "Road Runner" because she was never afraid to leave the security of her home to pursue an adventure.

 

In 2006, she combined her childhood fascination with foreign lands and her passion about the issues that impact Black American women and organized "Bella Italia," a whirlwind tour of Northern Italy. The rest is history. Following the lead of her members and requests for more destinations, BlackGirlTravel.com, now Globalnista, was born.

Evolution

​

When BlackGirlTravel  was founded, NO ONE, and we mean no one, was creating international group tours for just for Black women. We know because we searched for help! Yes, there were companies that were producing tours for mix genders, mostly to the islands. They took notice and  seize the opportunity to capitalize on our passionate mission and changed their focus to Black women. They combined their years in business as “Black women only,” but we are without a doubt the undisputed OGs of international group tours for black women and the proof.

​

 The name BlackGirlTravel has taken on a life of its own and has becomes catchphrase  and THE signature hashtag  for Black women living their best life traveling the world.  

The niche market that we inspired is now saturated. Anyone that has traveled a few time is leading tours. Some profited off brand confusion by also calling themselves some variation BlackGirlTravel.   While imitation of the copy-cats is flattering,  it is also confusing to those seeking “the true BGT/Gobalnista” experience.

 

While others focus of number of traveler and how much money are earning, our focus is and will always be the number of lives  we have helped changed for the better.  We never set-out to be a travel agency or  the biggest of anything.  Our goal  is to be a beacon of light in a world of possibities.

Unlike others, we have never had a group stranded anywhere.  We challenge anyone not hiding behind a alias, using their real name to come forward with proof of such an incident.   Now, leaving people who were late, well that is a different topic. ;)  Note that we ensure that those that miss departure of time, ALWAYS know where we are heading next, so they can reunited with their group.

 

Our repeater rate is high for reason. Many members are on their tenth tour more with us, some over fifteen experience.  You do not stay around as long as we have, without doing things right.

​

The time has come to separate ourselves from all the confusion as we continue to raise the bar.
 

The name BlackGirlTravel no longer fit who we are. Like our members, we  evolved to Global citizens not defined by one country. We have in hearts and minds that transcend race, geography, and cultural borders. We see the world not as a background for “I was there selfies” but as an opportunity for cultural immersion and personal growth while sharing experiences with others. We have released thoughts of nationalistic separation and become one with humanity. Our lives are open to a world where the love of ourselves and others are one and has limitless possibilities.  

​

We will always have the BlackGirlTravel girlish creative energy that went into every BGT experience, only now evolved to reflect our growth and continuous journey with our members.
