"Homebody", "Busybody", "Heavenly body",.... and what else?
I've learned a new word from a youtube channel. It is "Busybody"

I try to find more words/ phrases or idioms containing "body" like Homebody, Heavenly body but just that's it.

If you know any words like this, could you please share with me?

P/s: I have one more question. Do you ever use "travelbody" for the people loving traveling. I have put 2 words "travel" and "body" together and searched for it on google but there are very few search results for this word.

Thank you in advance! ^^

It's very kind of you, Steven, to give me such good explanation. Like you said, in fact, no dictionary mentioned the word "travelbody", even the dictionary on the website reverso.net which Valentina's just shared.
However, I find there a lot of interesting words related to "body" as I expected. What an awesome website! Thank you Valentina.
And thanks to Andrej, now I know one more word: (general) dogsbody. It's really useful to me.

A busybody is a nosy, rather annoying person who is always sticking his nose into other people’s business. It’s a pejorative term. I’ve not really heard the word “homebody” used too much before, but it sounds familiar. If people use it, it’s fairly unusual but the meaning is clear. It’s just someone who likes to stay home all the time. A heavenly body is like the Milky Way, the stars, a constellation of stars or something. I’ve never heard the word “travelbody” before. I know what you are getting at but, to my knowledge, it’s not an English word. Hope this helps.
