That time of the month again. The usual bi-weekly appointment with the best of what has been said online about Flashpacking. Not a great quantity of articles in the last two weeks, but definitely great quality. Let’s get started.
Habitat Hostel, Singapore, in TravelPod.com
I wouldn’t go as far as saying (as claimed on the article) that this is the only boutique flashpackers hostel in Singapore, but surely Habitat Hostel is showing us that even a dorm can be quite fancy. Excellent location and funky color themed rooms.
The flashpacker’s guide to the galaxy. Times of India
One of the best pieces written lately on Flashpacking, exploring the phenomenon as it expands in India as well. And of course merit for one catchy article title.
Simple and extravagant “Flashpacking” - Article in Chinese
Flashpacking is becoming a truly global phenomenon, as this article in Chinese demonstrates. If like me your Chinese is a bit.. let’s say rusty, you can use the Google Translate version.
Field Guide to World Travelers
Backpackers, Flashpackers, Gap-packers, Couchsurfers, Digital Nomads.. a lot of different definitions for people travelling in different styles. An excellent post to clarify all those terms.
Boutique Hostels in South America
Interesting to note how the Flashpacking phenomenon (and as a consequence Boutique Hostels) are starting to spread in South America as well.
