vagrantly
In homeless fashion
In a vagrant manner—wandering, drifting, or roaming without fixed direction or purpose.
The word applies both literally to physical movement and figuratively to thoughts or attention that wander aimlessly: Her mind moved vagrantly from one worry to the next.
Rarely used.
