This article examines our border experiences as PhD candidates developing transdisciplinary research in a Colombian public university. Its objective is to present our autoethnographic reflections by employing the borderlands theory as a framework to understand the emergence of physical and symbolic in-between spaces in which our experiences are situated. Our findings indicate that two elements affect our border experiences: the Colombian context, and practices and subjectivities. While the context is shaped by violence and neoliberalism, practices and subjectivities include our transdisciplinary formation and our research conducted with collaborators considered as 'others.' By discussing, examining, and interpreting our experiences, we underline the similarities and differences among them.
