A traveller is someone who goes on a journey or trip, often for leisure or business purposes, and may have a home base or a specific destination in mind. On the other hand, a nomad is someone who moves from place to place, often without a permanent home or settled lifestyle, and may do so for survival, cultural or spiritual reasons.
