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

Answer this Question

We asked people in Falmouth 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!...

"In Falmouth, it is important to be respectful of traditional cultural practices and avoid making insensitive jokes in public. It is also important to dress modestly and respect the customs of local families. It is considered offensive to start conversations about money and haggle aggressively over prices. Additionally, taking photos of people without their consent or disturbing cultural sites is frowned upon," explained one expat living in Falmouth, Jamaica, Jamaica.
