Have you ever heard of a gyrovague?

[Rabrrrrrr]

That's the AWAD (A Word A Day) word of the day - I've never heard it before. What a great word!! I want to be a gryovague.

gyrovague (JYE-ro-vayg) noun

A monk who travels from one place to another.

(From French, from Late Latin gyrovagus gyro- (circle) + vagus (wandering).)

-Anu Garg (gargATwordsmith.org)

"Other forms of religious life on Mount Athos fall outside these two major
categories and include anchorites, hermits who live alone in secluded
cells or in groups of two or three in remote houses with their own
chapels, and gyrovagues - itinerant, mendicant monks."
Plutarchos Theocharides; The Holy Mountain; UNESCO Courier; Jan 1998.
