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

Answer this Question

We asked people in Rabat 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 Rabat, it is important to be mindful of cultural norms and customs. It is important to dress modestly, especially when visiting religious sites. It is also important to be respectful of local customs and traditions, and to avoid public displays of affection. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local language and to avoid speaking loudly or using offensive language. It is also important to be aware of the local customs regarding food and drink, and to avoid eating or drinking in public during Ramadan. Finally, it is important to be respectful of local religious beliefs and to avoid discussing sensitive topics such as politics or religion," wrote a member who made the move to Rabat, Morocco.
