Wander round, heading for Dubrovnik and Split (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

drift

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'wander round' is the definition.
'drift' can be an answer for 'wander' (synonyms). I'm not certain of the 'round' bit.

'heading for dubrovnik and split' is the wordplay.
'heading for' says to take the initial letters.
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'split' becomes 'rift' (I've seen this in other clues).
The first letter of 'dubrovnik' is 'd'.
'd'+'rift'='DRIFT'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for drift that I've seen before include "Gist - snow" , "Bank (of snow)" , "(Of snow) blow into heaps" , "aimless" , "Movement off course or in general" .)
