globetrotter
Sees many countries
A globetrotter is someone who travels widely and frequently around the world, often for pleasure or adventure rather than necessity.
The word suggests enthusiasm for exploration and a cosmopolitan spirit: She's a real globetrotter—she's been to forty countries.
The term gained additional fame as the name of the Harlem Globetrotters basketball team.
