We asked people in Peniche 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 Peniche, it is important to be respectful of local customs and traditions. Avoid making negative comments about the country or its people, as this can be seen as offensive. Additionally, it is important to dress modestly and avoid public displays of affection. It is also important to be aware of the local religious customs and to be respectful of religious sites. Finally, it is important to be mindful of the local language and to try to use Portuguese when possible," said another expat in Peniche, Portugal.
