This paper adds to understanding of physiotherapy student experiences by exploring the ways students and recent graduates approach, learn about, connect with and form a relationship with their chosen profession of physiotherapy. Methods: Heuristic inquiry, a form of phenomenology, was used. Thirteen participants (11 students and 2 new graduates) were interviewed. Results: The findings are presented as four portraits: passenger, tourist, resident and citizen. These represent four particular and prominent ways that the participants connected with specific situations and/or to the profession as a whole, the sense they made of those situations (or the broader profession) and the identity formed. Discussion: The portraits help educators to think about how students are navigating the process of becoming a physiotherapist and might act as a tool to help foster students' professional development. Educators who understand students' motivations and struggles are better prepared to help students to see themselves and the profession in sophisticated ways.
