citizen of the world
Borderless identity holder
A citizen of the world is someone who sees themselves as belonging to humanity rather than any single nation—a cosmopolitan whose loyalties and concerns extend beyond borders.
The phrase suggests openness to other cultures and a sense of responsibility toward people everywhere: She considered herself a citizen of the world, equally at home in Tokyo or Buenos Aires.
