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

"In Tala, it's important to respect the local customs and traditions. Avoid making any negative comments about the ongoing political situation or the division between the Greek and Turkish Cypriots, as this is a sensitive topic. It's considered rude to refuse food or drink when offered by a Cypriot host. Always accept with a thank you, even if you're not hungry or thirsty. Cypriots are generally conservative and modest, so avoid wearing revealing clothing, especially in religious sites like churches and monasteries. Always cover your shoulders and knees in these places. Punctuality is not highly valued in Cypriot culture, so don't be offended if locals are late for appointments or social gatherings. However, as a visitor, you should still strive to be on time. Avoid pointing with your finger, as this is considered rude. Instead, use your whole hand to gesture. Public displays of affection are not common in Cyprus, so avoid excessive touching or kissing in public. It's also considered impolite to ask personal questions, especially about someone's income or personal life, unless you know the person well. Finally, remember to say "please" and "thank you" in Greek, as Cypriots appreciate it when foreigners make an effort to speak their language. The words are "parakalo" for please and "efharisto" for thank you," remarked another expat in Tala, Cyprus.
