I’m gunna be a Flashpacker

22-Feb-2006 by Jodie Miners

I love it when I find a new label that I can apply to myself – I found this one in the Sunday paper and it fitted me to a T. I’m gunna be a Flashpacker… Aparently a flashpacker is a backpacker who wants the benefits of backpacking but wants to live it up a bit. That’s me. At the end of the year, I’m going on my first trip to Europe – it’s my 40th birthday present to myself. Yep, I know it’s going to be cold, but I spent 3 months in the US in winter so I have all my cold weather gear and I don’t mind the cold and the snow. So, the Money’s all put aside, the leave is booked in, The rellies and friends in Dubai and London have been booked in and all I need to do now is plan how I’m going to spend that money in my 5 weeks away. I’m planning going to Spain to see the Architecture (Gaudi in Barcelona and the Guggenheim in Bilbao) and would like to see a bit of Paris and a lot of London. I think that’s enough for 5 weeks away. Plus a stop over to visit my cousin in Dubai on the way over (and maybe another cousin in Phuket on the way back). So I’ve got a bit of reasearch to do now on how to be an effective Flashpacker and have lot’s of fun.
