This open access book invites exploration into learning journeys as they unfold in, through and beyond the thinking space of a critically oriented postgraduate International Relations theory course. Drawing on the transformational potential of writing and creative research practice both in the classroom and the reflexive writing of this book, the project considers how we sense and make sense while navigating the lived experiences of academic study and world politics as asymmetrically positioned co-travellers. These embodied, experimental practices guide us in encountering and reshaping our relationships to self, others, and worlds – inspiring care, curiosity, and plural ways of knowing and being together in the field, contemporary higher education, and everyday life.
