wanderlustful
Craving distant horizons
Full of wanderlust—having a strong desire to travel and explore.
The word is a playful extension of wanderlust, adding the suffix to create an adjective that describes someone currently seized by the urge to roam: I'm feeling wanderlustful lately—maybe it's time to book a trip.
More whimsical than restless or itinerant.
