1. When gathering data I will try to spend more of my time observing and talking to people from this culture than looking in books or on the internet. I would rather gain firsthand information to enter into the culture.
2. I’ll interview people, but also maybe spend more time with one person rather than many. Spending time with one person allows me to become closer to them and experience things from their point of view as a one sided person within this culture.
3. I hope to hit on traditions that follow and have followed this culture for years, and maybe take time to analyze the traditions that might have changed over time and why this happened. I might have some difficulty getting inside this culture because some people don’t like to disclose everything about their world to others who may not understand. I don’t believe I’ll have too much trouble because I have friends within this sub-culture.
