nomad's

Belonging to drifters

Nomad's is the possessive form of nomad—a person who moves from place to place rather than settling permanently.

The word applies literally to members of pastoral or hunter-gatherer societies who follow seasonal resources: a nomad's tent, a nomad's herd.

It extends to anyone with an itinerant lifestyle: a digital nomad's laptop setup, a nomad's restless spirit.
