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

"In Santa Lucia, it's important to avoid discussing politics or making negative comments about the country or its people. This can be seen as disrespectful and offensive. It's also considered rude to interrupt someone while they're speaking. Hondurans value patience and politeness, so try to wait your turn in conversations. Avoid wearing revealing clothing, especially in religious or traditional settings. Hondurans are generally conservative and modest in their dress, so it's best to follow suit. Don't refuse food or drink offered to you, as this can be seen as a rejection of hospitality. If you have dietary restrictions, explain them politely. Avoid being overly affectionate in public. Public displays of affection are generally frowned upon, especially in rural areas. Don't be impatient or rush things. Hondurans have a relaxed attitude towards time, known as "Honduran time". It's considered rude to rush or pressure someone. Avoid making direct eye contact with strangers, as this can be seen as aggressive or confrontational. It's best to use a softer gaze. Lastly, don't litter. Hondurans take pride in their beautiful natural environment and it's important to respect this," said a member in Santa Lucia, Honduras.
