Marka Kamińskiego podróże w głąb siebie – tropy i inspiracje andragogiczne
Marek Kamiński’s Travels Deep into His Self – Tropes and Andragogic Inspirations

Summary/Abstract: Travelling has become an extremely valuable “benefit” of pedagogic sciences. A journey is perceived as an educational project. As Olga Czerniakowska writes, a journey is and can be an educational project, which originates, is carried out and is ongoing even though the journey has ended (it is retained as a memory, experience and knowledge). A journey understood as an educational project contains in itself a message, preparation, awareness of a goal, and experience, but it is also meaningful for the individual’s development. The proponent of the concept of a journey that develops, educates and is not only “popping into” places is Marek Kamiński – traveller and explorer of the polar regions. As I see it, Marek Kamiński himself and his writings are very representative of the concept of an educational journey. The purpose of this article is to present selected aspects of Marek Kamiński’s writings and show the significance of his travel literature in the context of educational processes, as well as to indicate its usefulness for inspiring deliberations on growing up, searching for adulthood and its realizations.
