Iresearcher

After reading Iresearcher, I feel much more familiar with how an ethnography is suppose to be set up. An ethnography goes into detail about surroundings that the writer has witnessed. In this ethnography, the writer talks about the Hanover Bowladrome and how her family enjoys bonding in a way such as this. Because of her large family, the Bowladrome is also a cheaper alternative to other things, plus they really enjoy the sport itself. I was most interested hearing her describe the surroundings inside the building and the overall aroma it gave off. She could smell the pizza from a mile away. While reading this ethnography, the detail and descriptions of everything gave me a sense of actually being there which is really important. Without detail and descriptions, how are you suppose to know what the reader experiences? I knew exactly what she was seeing, smelling, and experiencing just based off her descriptions. When I write my ethnography in the future, I hope for it to be similar to this one because I enjoyed reading how important this place was to her family and growing up.
