Flashpacker 

Similar to the common backpacker in that they also travel alone or in pairs rather than using tours, and carry the eponymous trekking pack; however they typically are in their 30s and 40s with enough income to stay in guesthouses instead of dorm rooms.

They stay for shorter periods of time and are winning to pay for the fastest or most comfortable means of transportation (but not exclusively).

These travelers might be former backpackers who aren't going to argue over the price of a beer, but still aren't traveling in luxury.

Also, a derogatory term used by backpackers (who also carry gadgets) to describe someone who no longer feels the romance of sleeping with cockroaches or riding the chicken bus.

"Those flashpackers are so inauthentic - I mean, I went 8 days without showering."

Flashpacker 

A flashpacker is a backpacker who travels in and out of towns, cities or countries in short periods of time. Typically a flashpacker spends 2 to 3 days in each location as they try to squeeze as many places into one trip, rather than stay in one place for a longer period of time gaining a deeper appreciation for it. Therefore you are in and out in a flash.

Duuude... I just got back from an amazing 5 weeks in South East Asia. I went to Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand and it was all amazing! My two days in Bali were the best brah! - ...sounds like you're a flashpacker you pansy.

A young wealthy traveller who goes to developing countries dressed in the latest hiking/travel gear, backpacks,alloy water bottles and equipment.
They act like world travellers but are not and they dont spread their wealth around on their journey.

THEY PLAY POOR.
