I understand your feeling of being pressed for time. I've been reading some of your red tape woes. If you are looking at being able to study only a month at a time... Yikes.
I'm just impressed that unlike so many new Phd's these days, you actually learned a language and went abroad to study in a culture which is not your own. Advocacy Anthropology drives me crazy when it's advocating one's own point of view.
I'm sure that when your study is done, you'll think you don't ave enough- or maybe you'll think you have too much, and then you'll sit down to write, and it will be a ,long haul, but in the end, you'll have documented something for all the world. Even in this journal, you give us little tidbits about llife where you are- the story of the building where your 90 year old friend lives was only a few sentences, but spoke volumes. :)
