In this paper I discuss the effect of emotional involvement in the field and the effect of movement between conflicted worlds on ethnographic research. I base my analysis on my own life experience between Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories, where I have made a few fieldworks between 1994 and 1996 and where I have lived continuously from January 1998 to November 2004.
