"It is important to be respectful of local customs and traditions when visiting Boquete. It is considered rude to point with your finger, so it is best to use an open hand when gesturing. It is also important to dress modestly, as shorts and tank tops are generally not considered appropriate attire. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local language and to avoid speaking loudly or using offensive language. Finally, it is important to be respectful of the local environment and to avoid littering or damaging the natural environment," said a member in Boquete, Panama.
