vagabond life
Rootless, roaming existence
A vagabond life is one of wandering without fixed home or employment—drifting from place to place, often by choice rather than necessity.
The phrase carries romantic overtones of freedom from routine and social expectations, though it can also suggest aimlessness or poverty: He gave up his career to live a vagabond life on the road.
