jodi commented on the word wandervogel
"There was a new vocabulary word, wandervogel, used to describe the itinerant-traveling-scholar life of a famed researcher when he was in his unformed, rapidly-learning youth: my dictionary tells me that this translates into “bird of passage.” -from Composing a Life by Mary Catherine Bateson, via Mel Chua's blog
