苦哈哈地挤在低价旅馆里,一瓶水两个面包过一天……一些有一定经济基础的背包客不再选择这样的旅行方式,他们更愿意花钱享受旅途的舒适惬意。
While sleeping in crowded hostels and strapping all your possessions to your back is heaven for some, there’s another breed of backpacker who’s looking for luxury. 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. “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. A poll of 1,000 working professionals aged from 35 to 54 found that more than three-quarters (78 percent) would define their travelling style as that of a 'flashpacker' - an adventure traveller that desires style and comfort. 例句: Have you seen all his gadgets? He's a real flashpacker. (中国日报网英语点津 yaning) |
