A travel around the world trip is a journey with multiple destinations on multiple continents. You travel alone, or with your travel partners, from country to country and continent to continent. A classic world trip calls at every continent or passes through at least every meridian.
A world trip can be made by any means of transportation and can be short or long in duration.
Backpacking generally means traveling low-cost, independent, using local transport and preferably immersing yourself in the local culture and carrying your necessary possessions in a backpac, or al least not in a suitcase.
Backpacking has evolved to a mainstream form of traveling and is not limited to low cost travel any more
Backpackers can be of any age, but are typically aged 18 to 25
