Carefree lifestyle unbounded by convention.

If you're an artist, musicain, anarchist, or pot-smoker you're probably a bohemian.

Watch Moulin Rouge, Rent, or La Vie Boheme to see examples.

La Vie Boheme 

Translation: The bohemian life. A song from the musical RENT, in the format of a toast to the life of a poor artist. Has become an anthem of sorts for many artists of all kinds. A must-know song and principle for anyone intending to make a career in the arts.
To riding your bike midday past the three-piece suits
To fruits, to no absolutes, to Absolut
To choice, to the Village Voice
To any passing fad
To being an us for once, instead of a them
La Vie Boheme!

la vie boheme 

In english, "The Bohemian Life". One of the best songs in Rent that celebrates the life of the Bohemians living in the Village.
"To days of inspiration playing hookie, making something out of nothing, the need to express to communicate, to going against the grain, going insane going mad. To loving tension, no pension, to more than one dimension, to starving for attention, hating convention, hating pretension not to mention of course, hating dear old mom and dad. To riding your bike, Midday past the three- piece suits, to fruits to no absolutes, to Absolute- to choice, to the Village Voice to any passing fad. To being an us-for once-, instead of a them...

LA VIE BOHEME!"
