<p>This ethnographic project
delves into the spheres of life of three autistic adults and their families.
This thesis analyzes their experiences, current routines, and personal and
family narratives about what it means to be an autistic adult across different
identities and geographies. This thesis also identifies forms of knowledge that
arise in these life experiences and shape strategies, decisions, or attitudes
taken to navigate through life or overcome possible difficulties in their
present and futures. This research takes place in Colombia, a diverse country
and engages with anthropology of the everyday, sensory anthropology and
disability studies.</p>
