Dominicans are religious friars and not monks. They do not make a vow of stability and are, instead, quite mobile (itinerent), often partaking of foreign travel.
Their mission can be summarized by the phrase : "contemplare et aliis contemplata tradere", to contemplate and transmit to other things contemplated.
