globetrotters
Frequent international voyagers
Globetrotters are people who travel widely around the world, typically for pleasure or adventure rather than business.
The term suggests frequent, far-flung journeys: My parents became globetrotters after they retired.
Capitalized, the Harlem Globetrotters are a famous exhibition basketball team known for theatrical play.
