While yesterday’s word, “stravaig,” means “to wander aimlessly,” “gadabout” means to seek out something very specific: pleasure. A gadabout is “a habitual pleasure seeker” — we often think of pleasure as a flashier sort of satisfaction (adventurous travel, glamorous parties), but quiet comforts (nourishing food, cozy homes) can be just as fulfilling. The key for the gadabout is the habitually seeking nature — if something doesn’t satisfy, move on to the next.
