500 YEARS OF TRAVEL AROUND THE WORLD
DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER
DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER
• In our school we questioned students
about the importance of travels and
geography in their daily lives.
• We initiated our activities “500 years
of travels” with drawings, creative
writings, searches on books,
geographical and historical readings
about the travellers and the
consequences of these travels with
tools and learning apps.
• From the gallery of Romanian
explorers the students selected the
one that is less known and
contributed in an original way to the
image of the country in their journey
around the world.
DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER
The story of the Romanian explorer who has
traveled 100,000 km on foot dressed in
traditional clothes and traditional Romanian
sandals was the most voted character by the
students .
With preschool and primary teachers we
initiated actions to stimulate the sciences,
especially robotics and coding, using new
technologies such as Lego We do 2.0 /Lego
Boost or some digital applications, carrying
out interdisciplinary geographical activities
with literacy, foreign languages, sciences using
project basic learning method.
DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER
Dumitru Dan had little in common with
the world’s most famous globetrotter,
Phileas Fogg. Jules Verne’s English
gentleman was an accommodated
traveller who went around the world in
eighty days using whatever means of
transport he could to win a wager with
members of the Reform Club, while the
Romanian walked 100,000 kilometres
around the world for six years, dressed
in folk costumes and wearing peasant
sandals, putting up folk music and
dance performances to earn his bread
along the way.
DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER
It was 1908 when Touring Club de France initiated a special
competition to promote tourism: groups of travellers from
around the world were invited to sign up, and the selection
was quite rigorous. Four Romanians who were already in Paris
as undergraduates became interested and decided to
participate: Dumitru Dan and Pavel Pârvu, both students of the
Faculty of Geography, along with Gheorghe Negreanu and
Alexandru Pascu, at the time enrolled in the National
Conservatoire of Dramatic Arts. Their proposed itinerary, set
according to the change of seasons in the northern and
southern hemispheres, so they could travel mostly during
summertime, was found interesting. And their plan to keep
walking, pedometers strapped to their feet, on board the ships
that took them across oceans between continents was
considered very clever. In the end, those two innovative ideas
got them selected among the 200 finalists. There was a prize,
too: one French franc per kilometre – in total, 100,000 francs.
DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER
Over the following six years, their journey, carefully
recorded by Dan in his journal and certified by the local
authorities of the places they visited, took them first up
north via Hungary, Austria, Germany, Denmark, Norway,
Sweden, Finland, Russia, then south-east to Iran, Syria,
Palestine, Egypt, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Ethiopia,
Madagascar, where they boarded a ship to Sydney, landed
and walked around the sunburnt country, reached New
Zealand, then headed up north again to Singapore, Sri
Lanka, India, South Africa, Africa’s west coast, the Canary
Islands, once more by ship to Brazil, around South America
(Argentina, Chile, Peru, Ecuador), up along North
America’s west coast, then from San Francisco to Japan,
Hong Kong, China and Siberia, crossed to Alaska, went
down to San Francisco again, did Mexico’s east coast, then
travelled to North Africa, around Europe (Italy,
Switzerland, France, the Netherlands, the United
Kingdom), back to Canada, along America’s east coast,
then down south to Cuba, Venezuela, Haiti, the Dominican
Republic, Puerto Rico, and across the ocean to Portugal,
Spain, Malta, Athens, Sofia, Belgrade.
DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER
At the end, this extraordinary feat’s figures
speak volumes: with or without his team,
Dumitru Dan visited 1,500 big cities in 74
countries and 30 colonies on five continents
around the world. He crossed the equator six
times, the Atlantic four times, the Indian
Ocean twice and the Pacific once. Last but
not least, during the whole of his voyage he
used 28 folk costumes and wore out 497
pairs of peasant sandals. And he remained
fond of records, since after his voyage around
the world he delivered no fewer than 2,000
talks popularising it, with its fantastic ethnic,
geographical, cultural and historical richness,
around Romania.

Dumitru Romanian explorer.

  • 1. SCHOOL “TIBERIU MORARIU “SALVA COUNTY BISTRITA-NASAUD,ROMANIA PROJECT ERASMUS + B.L.E.N.D 2017-1-FR-01-KA219-037364_6 500 YEARS OF TRAVEL AROUND THE WORLD DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER
  • 2. DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER • In our school we questioned students about the importance of travels and geography in their daily lives. • We initiated our activities “500 years of travels” with drawings, creative writings, searches on books, geographical and historical readings about the travellers and the consequences of these travels with tools and learning apps. • From the gallery of Romanian explorers the students selected the one that is less known and contributed in an original way to the image of the country in their journey around the world.
  • 3. DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER The story of the Romanian explorer who has traveled 100,000 km on foot dressed in traditional clothes and traditional Romanian sandals was the most voted character by the students . With preschool and primary teachers we initiated actions to stimulate the sciences, especially robotics and coding, using new technologies such as Lego We do 2.0 /Lego Boost or some digital applications, carrying out interdisciplinary geographical activities with literacy, foreign languages, sciences using project basic learning method.
  • 4. DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER Dumitru Dan had little in common with the world’s most famous globetrotter, Phileas Fogg. Jules Verne’s English gentleman was an accommodated traveller who went around the world in eighty days using whatever means of transport he could to win a wager with members of the Reform Club, while the Romanian walked 100,000 kilometres around the world for six years, dressed in folk costumes and wearing peasant sandals, putting up folk music and dance performances to earn his bread along the way.
  • 5. DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER It was 1908 when Touring Club de France initiated a special competition to promote tourism: groups of travellers from around the world were invited to sign up, and the selection was quite rigorous. Four Romanians who were already in Paris as undergraduates became interested and decided to participate: Dumitru Dan and Pavel Pârvu, both students of the Faculty of Geography, along with Gheorghe Negreanu and Alexandru Pascu, at the time enrolled in the National Conservatoire of Dramatic Arts. Their proposed itinerary, set according to the change of seasons in the northern and southern hemispheres, so they could travel mostly during summertime, was found interesting. And their plan to keep walking, pedometers strapped to their feet, on board the ships that took them across oceans between continents was considered very clever. In the end, those two innovative ideas got them selected among the 200 finalists. There was a prize, too: one French franc per kilometre – in total, 100,000 francs.

  • 7. DUMITRU DAN-ROMANIAN EXPLORER At the end, this extraordinary feat’s figures speak volumes: with or without his team, Dumitru Dan visited 1,500 big cities in 74 countries and 30 colonies on five continents around the world. He crossed the equator six times, the Atlantic four times, the Indian Ocean twice and the Pacific once. Last but not least, during the whole of his voyage he used 28 folk costumes and wore out 497 pairs of peasant sandals. And he remained fond of records, since after his voyage around the world he delivered no fewer than 2,000 talks popularising it, with its fantastic ethnic, geographical, cultural and historical richness, around Romania. https://vimeo.com/341384326
