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

Answer this Question

We asked people in Villavicencio 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!...

"It is important to be mindful of cultural norms when visiting Villavicencio. It is important to be respectful of local customs and traditions, and to dress modestly. It is also important to be aware of the local language and to avoid using offensive language or making jokes about local customs. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local religious beliefs and to avoid discussing sensitive topics such as politics or religion. Finally, it is important to be aware of local social norms and to avoid making assumptions about people based on their gender, race, or ethnicity," wrote a member who made the move to Villavicencio, Colombia.
