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

"In Ayangue, it's important to respect the local customs and traditions. Avoid wearing revealing clothing, especially in religious or traditional settings, as it can be seen as disrespectful. It's also considered rude to interrupt someone while they're speaking, so always wait for your turn to talk. When dining, don't start eating until the host or hostess starts. If you're invited to someone's home, it's customary to bring a small gift. However, avoid giving lilies, marigolds or purple flowers as they are associated with funerals. Ecuadorians value punctuality, but they also understand that things don't always go as planned. If you're running late, it's polite to call and let them know. Avoid discussing sensitive topics such as politics, religion, and personal finances. It's also considered impolite to ask people about their indigenous or ethnic background. Remember to always greet people with a handshake, and maintain eye contact during conversations as it's a sign of respect and sincerity. However, avoid prolonged eye contact as it can be seen as aggressive or confrontational. Lastly, Ecuadorians are very proud of their culture and heritage, so always show appreciation and respect towards their customs, traditions, and local cuisine," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Ayangue, Ecuador.
