The present chapter provides a case reflection of an international doctoral seminar week in Ljubljana in spring 2015 seen in retrospect both from the viewpoint of a (then) doctoral student and a supervisor. For two educational historians, both new to engaging in multidisciplinary meetings in the educational sciences and to the concept of intense doctoral seminar weeks, this short form immersion began with a slight academic shock, a shock that gradually, and particularly in a long-term perspective, turned out to be a good start for conversations about potential values of international and multidisciplinary meetings as a part of doctoral training, for reflections on disciplinarity, and not least for a rediscovery of their academic homes. The main argument is that doctoral internationalisation is a multilayered and slow-cooking procedure and that the homecoming – and postprocessing – is an almost equally important step as the actual act of going away. This, in turn, might require active planning and making room for reflection.
