Traveller much easier on the eye, we hear (8)
I believe the answer is:
wayfarer
'traveller' is the definition.
(I know that wayfarer is a type of traveller)
'much easier on the eye we hear' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'much' could be 'way' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'way' is found in the answer.
'on' could be 're' ('on' can be mean 'with reference to') and 're' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'far' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for wayfarer that I've seen before include "Bird of passage" , "One journeying on foot" , "Person on a journey - sailing dinghy" , "Trekker" , "One walking" .)
