Agree with beerMe regarding nice manners with local people. Before noon: "Good morning". After midday and before sundown: "Good afternoon". When it's dark: "Good night" (NOTE this is a greeting, not a farewell). Then make your request/ask a question. Please and thank you always goes down well.

One other important piece of advice...avoid beachwear anywhere other than the beach: no bare chests or bikini bottoms walking along the street, please just cover up!


Woof woof!
