Word origin
The term 'bohemian' originated in the early 19th century to describe artists and writers who led unconventional lives. It was initially associated with the Romani people of Bohemia, now part of the Czech Republic. Over time, the word evolved to represent a free-spirited and artistic lifestyle, often characterized by a rejection of traditional societal norms.
