Flashpacker Defined: A tech-savvy and/or affluent backpacker who uses the most up-to-date tech gadgets to make travel easier and more cost-effective. Flashpackers tend to prefer hip, trendy or budget hostel accommodations and boutique hotels. Flashpackers crave adventure! They travel light with only one backpack (high-quality of course), and a laptop.

Backpacker Defined: The ultimate style of budget independent travel. World Backpackers travel for much longer periods of time, and may even work abroad to provide for their globetrotting ways. They tend to resort to creative accommodations such as hostels, campsites, and couch surfing. Technology is a preference, and not a priority.

Jet Set Guru Defined: With new technologies, there is a plethora of newfound wealth! Today's Jet Setters have taken advantage of the "Digital Age", and have found success beyond their wildest dreams. They tend to travel to global hot spots, and stay at luxury hotels heavily populated with Socialite's from all over the world. Jet Setters have one thing in mind, "Work Hard - Play Hard". (Why add this Travel Type? Answer: Technology, and love for Travel)

Digital Nomads Defined: The new kind of business travel. Today's entrepreneurs, and even the big huge tech companies have found a way to employ independent-minded spirits to run huge projects from their own laptops from anywhere around the world. Digital Nomads are the new "self-employed", and can be found in locations where WI-FI is king.
