What cultural faux pas should I try to avoid making in Boquete?

Answer this Question

We asked people in Boquete if they could share any humorous cultural blunders they commited. For new expats, keep in mind that these incidents are an inevitable part of expat life. Learning to laugh about them is the key!...

"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.
