A person, usually of retirement age, who has sold or left their home and now resides in a caravan, camper van or RV.

Their name is given as they (being older) generally have grey hair and lead a nomadic lifestyle.

Grey nomads are generally found in the caravan parks of Australia, or driving slowly up country mountain roads, with a long line of irate drivers behind them.
I called to book into the caravan park in 6 months, but it's chock full of grey nomads for years.

Get the Grey Nomad mug.
When a person usually retirement age goes through a midlife crisis sells there house to buy a Caravan and goes of to live the days as trailer trash. Completely undoing many of the goals they set themselves when they were younger.
