Резюме	Field-based autoethnography is a qualitative research design in which the researcher immerses themselves in a specific physical or social setting and draws on their own lived experience within that field to produce analytically reflexive accounts. It blends the systematic observational practices of ethnographic fieldwork with the first-person introspective voice of autoethnography, generating knowledge that is simultaneously personal, cultural, and contextually grounded.	Ethnography is a qualitative research tradition in which a researcher immerses themselves in a social group or community over an extended period — typically three to six months or longer — to study its culture, values, and behaviours in their natural setting. Originating in social and cultural anthropology, and consolidated as a rigorous method by Bronisław Malinowski in the early twentieth century, ethnography produces rich, contextualised accounts of how people live, work, and make meaning together.
