“…Indeed, participant observation is one of the most common tools that geographers already use in their strong record of conducting multi‐sited ethnographic research (e.g. Ballvé, 2020; Bernazzoli & Flint, 2010; Billo & Mountz, 2016; Butz, 2010; Dowler, 2001; Duggan, 2017; Firat, 2022; Herbert, 2000; Hitchings & Latham, 2020; Jackson, 1985; Koch, 2023a; Mason, 2023; Megoran, 2006; Müller, 2013; Watson, 2021; Watson & Till, 2010).
