Anthropology fieldwork with children, sometimes kids get sick

An article by Dr. Reetta Toivanen, an Adjunct Professor for Social and Cultural Anthropology and a Finnish Academy Research Fellow at the Erik Castren Institute of International Law and Human Rights at the University of Helsinki. 

She discusses how her children help her make contact with everyday people while traveling.  She also shares a journal entry from a particularly harrowing travel time when her child fell ill.
