Why you should become a sponsor for Flashpacker HQ:

Flashpacker HQ provides informative and inspiring content centered on flashpacker travel.  Travel photography and travelogue stories help inspire would-be travelers to get out on the road and travel tips help them figure out how to do just that.

If you seek to raise your awareness with flashpackers, backpackers, independent travelers, and students setting out on a gap-year adventure, then sponsorship is the way to go.

A Short Definition of Flashpacker:

Flashpackers, one of the fastest growing groups in travel, experience the world in a fashion similar to backpackers, but with more money to spend on local experiences and tours.  Because they carry a lot of tech (cameras, smart phones, laptops) with them, they’re also much more likely to be sharing their trip through social media channels.
