萍踪 píngzōng @ 《现代汉语词典》
〈书〉〈名〉像浮萍那样漂泊不定的行踪:~浪迹。

萍蹤 píng zōng @ 《重編國語辭典修訂本》
比喻行蹤不定。宋・陸游〈答交代楊通判啟〉:「瓜戍及期,幸仁賢之為代,萍蹤無定,悵候問之未遑,敢謂勞謙。」元・薩都剌〈秋日病起池上〉詩:「飄風辭萍蹤,落葉散魚影。」

浮萍的蹤跡。比喻像浮萍那樣隨處漂泊的行蹤。
例 「萍蹤難覓」、「萍蹤無定」。

But this seems to be a relatively rare word. For example, I found only one good example in decades of TP articles:
長期以來,人口稀少的馬祖列島來來往往的,其實都是這樣的過客:從早期的阿兵哥,到現在的台商和觀光客。過客萍蹤不定,馬祖人的經濟卻得仰賴他們。
