Summary/Abstract: The researchers carrying out fieldwork become connected through intimate ties of friendship or self-discovery, and, thus, find something special in these ties. In an equal measure, intimacy can be a source of danger, unpredictability and violence, visualizing the risks that the researcher can create for their interlocutors. When we view intimacy from this double perspective, we are also capable of representing the things that matter in day-to-day fieldwork.
