حياة المغامرة - مغامر
Explanation:
في رأيي الشخصي أن المغامر أنسب وأقرب من المعني المقصود من هذه العبارة، فالمغامرة تختلف قليلا في مفهومها عن المخاطرة. والأساس في تعريف العبارة الانجليزية هي المغامرة الي حد الاستهتار واختبيار أقصر الطرق بغض النظر عن العواقب أو بمعني آخر انها صفه تتغلب فيها السلبيات علي الايجابيات.
