Who can tell me the meaning of the following words, they are related to tourism vocabulary:
1. runaway
2. spartan: Backpacking camps are more spartan than ordinary camps. |

1. a runaway is someone who ran away from somewhere, possibly their home (e. g. teenagers)
2. spartan - meaning that only the mosu rudimentary, basic equipment is there, like the Spartans had, almost military simplicity, no luxury at all |

If the words are to do with tourism, was the word runway ? rather than runaway

The plane taxied along the runway. |

If it �s runway, it can also be the fashion show runway - the path which models take while showing off the clothes. |
