Wanderer or traveler
Derived from the English word for a member of a nomadic people. Historically, the term originated from a mistaken belief that the Romani people came from Egypt. In a modern context, it is often used to evoke a free-spirited or bohemian lifestyle, though it is also considered a sensitive ethnic slur by some.
