About us
Flash Pack is an award-winning adventure travel company that brings together solo travelers in their 30s and 40s. We curate spectacular trips around the world that empower people looking for challenge and escapism. Our mission is to create a great group dynamic between like-minded travellers, a goal that has seen us grow a powerful community of over 130,000 Flashpackers in more than 15 countries. Flash Pack is the brainchild of die-hard adventurists, Radha Vyas and Lee Thompson. Together, they want to change the face of the industry, shaking off tired old clichés associated with group travel. Their vision is to create comfort-busting adventures that really get under the skin of a place via local and unique experiences. Think all the thrill of backpacking, elevated by boutique hotels and seamless itineraries. Flash Pack has tapped into a unique demand at a unique time for solo travel. Since we launched in 2014, business has boomed, with triple-digit year-on-year growth. We’ve also won a string of awards and picked up wall-to-wall press coverage. Perhaps our proudest achievement, however, is the people at the heart of our adventures. In an age when the world is retreating behind screens, our trips spark meaningful connections and lifelong friendships. We are building a movement of like-minded solo travellers all over the globe. And we’re riding the tide of change at a pivotal moment for the industry.

Giving disposable cameras to travelers heading out on Flash Pack trips is our new favourite hobby. 😍 Thanks to Toby Roney, who joined Chris on his trip to Kenya and took some amazing shots featured here. Video inspired by Life on film 👏

Early on in my trip, I realized that there was not much overlap between solo travel and disability travel. That prompted me to set about making a new world record: a challenge that required me to submit over 2000 pieces of evidence. So, every time someone signed a statement for me on my travels, they started following my journey. They were as excited as I was when I was finally awarded the title. ❤️ Read the full article by Renee Bruns

"I realised early on that advice shared by the financial world wasn’t very fun or accessible. It was dominated by older white men, whereas I was hungry for the perspective of someone closer to my age; someone who looked a little more like me. As it turned out, that someone was me – with the launch of my community, Points By J." Jessica Bohorquez A.

Co-founder & CEO at Flash Pack 🌏 Sharing lessons as I scale one of the UK’s fastest growing startups. Championing diversity in entrepreneurship.
10 expectations to let go of in your 30s (that I learnt the hard way): 1. You need to have kids ASAP 2. You need to be married ASAP 3. You need to buy a house ASAP 4. You need to have your dream career 5. You need to stop having fun, be serious 6. You need to tick off your entire bucket list 7. You can’t go travelling or take solo adventures 8. You can control what other people think of you 9. You can neglect your health because you’re young 10. You can’t be the boss if you’re (to be) a new parent. I thought I needed everything figured out by 30. But guess what? I turned 30, then 31, 32, and now I’m in my 40s… I’m still figuring it out. And that’s okay. There is no one-size-fits all timeline for life. So... ↳ Let go of the pressure to conform to expectations. ↳ Embrace your journey, write your own path. What expectations did you have that you have/are letting go of?👇🏽 --- PS. If this post resonated with you: ♻️ Reshare it with your network so others can too. 🩵 Follow me, Radha, for more of my journey.
