Nefelibata


Nefelibata (ne-fe-LE-ba-ta) Noun: -A cloud walker; one who lives in the cloud of their own imagination or dreams, or one who does not abide by the precepts of society, literature, or art.

-An unconventional, unorthodox person.

From Portuguese “nephele” cloud and “batha" - a place where you can walk.

Used in a sentence:

“Always the nefelibata in grade school, his social calendar was generally wide open; but now that he’s a billionaire, he finds it difficult to decide which event he wishes to grace with his much sought after presence.”

It’s important to have dreams!
