由来
  • 英文 “Backpacker” 的意译。
  • 背包客的概念源自于十七至十九世纪的欧洲贵族旅行风潮。
  • 如今,背包客一般指那些自己背着背包做长途自助旅行的人。他们提倡花最少的钱,走最远的路,看别人难以看到的风景,获得不同的生活体验。
ETYMOLOGY
  • The Mandarin term “背包客” is a paraphrase of the English term “backpacker”.
  • The concept of backpacking originated in the 17th to 19th century, influenced by the European aristocrats’ penchant for travelling.
