Globe-trotter

A globe-trotter is a person who travels frequently to different parts of the world, often crossing multiple countries or continents during their journeys. This term is commonly used to describe travelers with a passion for exploring diverse cultures, destinations, and experiences.

Unlike tourists who may visit one or two destinations per year, globe-trotters typically seek longer or more frequent trips, sometimes combining circle trips with open jaw flights to maximize their travel routes. They use travel loyalty programs to get perks and reduce costs over time.

Many globe-trotters prefer independent travel but might also use services provided by tour operators, destination management companies (DMCs), or online travel agencies (OTAs) for booking complex itineraries.

Globe-trotters often choose alternative accommodations like hostels or lodges, and they may pursue alternative tourism experiences like volunteering abroad or joining ecotourism programs. Their travel style usually emphasizes cultural immersion.
