flashpackers 奢华背包客

While sleeping in crowded hotels and strapping all your possessions to your back is heaven for some, there's another breed of backpacker who's looking for luxury. 

睡在拥挤的旅店，把所有行囊背在背上，尽管这对一些人来说很有乐趣，但还有一些背包客热衷于寻找奢华体验。

Like their penny-pinching cousins, these travellers go from one exotic destination to the next with no itinerary or tour operator to guide them, toting laptops and other hi-tech gear. 

就像节约型游客一样，奢华背包客出国旅游时也没有旅行日程或者旅行社的引导，但他们随身携带手提电脑和高科技装备。

"Flashpackers," as they have been dubbed because they backpack with flash or style, are generally older than the average student backpacker and thus have the funds to satisfy their champagne tastes. 

由于他们的装备时尚前卫，他们被称为“奢华背包客”。他们的年龄比一般的学生背包客要大些，因此也有钱满足自己的奢侈品味。
