Imagine you are about to do field research in a specific place for a set time. Instead of thinking about the topic of study itself, consider how you, as the researcher, will have to prepare for the study. What personal, social, and physical sacrifices will you have to make? How will you manage your personal effects? What organizational equipment and systems will you need to collect the data?

1. Many sacrifices will be made as it will be necessary for me to stay away from my family and friends, which may be a little lonely for the duration of the research. It may also be necessary for me to live in a place that is not very comfortable and has fewer resources that I am used to. It may be that the place where the research will be carried out has a very different geography and climate from the place where I live, which may generate even more discomforts for me, such as very high or very low temperatures.

2. Ideally, I should take few personal belongings, so I don't have to spend a lot of time managing them and focus my time on doing the research. However, my management must be around the most necessary personal items, which I could not live without.

3. This will depend on the research and what it is evaluating, but I can guarantee that computers and organizational systems will be needed through spreadsheets and software that remain the tabulation of the collected data, their storage and optimization.
