How to use "Drifter" in context?
The term "drifter" typically describes someone who has lost their settled life, has deviated from the norms of society, and is looking for a new path in life. This can be a result of many different factors, including a personal crisis, a natural disaster, or even just a change in perspective.
For many drifters, the lure of the open road is strong. They see it as a chance to explore the world and find themselves. For others, it may be a way to get away from the troubles in their life. Regardless of the motivation, the journey is what defines a drifter.
