Summary/Abstract: The modern science of thinking in networks and the interpretation of human activities made in networks is almost as old as the science of tourism, or as called in the paper: travel science. Networking is taken here as an organisational model defining the basic structure of existence, similarly to the interpretation of disability and accessibility by the authors. Man providing accessibility can partially compensate his adaptation deficiencies by organising into networks, but this does not exempt him from his existential disability. Albert-László Barabási in his book called Linked: The New Science of Networks gives a detailed analysis of the birth and operation of networks that infiltrate all areas of human life and are almost organically growing. Since the publication of this book, several essays have appeared in the topic, and the author himself has deepened and further contemplated the statements of his own and his research team, considering the paradigm of networking suitable for integration with almost all fields of science (including travel science). However, statements concerning philosophy, especially existential (life) philosophy, can only be seen indirect ways in the related literature and researches.
