The speed and convenience of modern travel makes the faraway countries be reached quickly and easily now.
Even though they now seem closer, they may still be different from your home country. So it is important to change your behavior so that you can get on well with local people. Following are some basic rules that will make communication easier, and your trip more enjoyable.
First, never raise your voice in order to make yourself understood. If you don't know the word for something in the local language, try to draw a picture or point to the thing. Before you travel, you can also learn some basic words or phrases of the local language, such as words for please, thank you, and may I, as well as basic greetings
Second, consider the culture of the country you plan to visit and read about the rules related to clothing. You ca bring some clothes such as shirts or T-shirts that cover your shoulders, and long trousers.
Avoid topics(话题) that you think may be sensitive. If a topic is sensitive in your own culture, it will likely be the same in other cultures. Feel free to show interest in the history and customs of the place that you are visiting, but don't ask questions about why things are done a certain way, because you may make the local people unhappy.
Keep in mind that in many cultures, showing affection in public isn't allowed. Kissing on the street or in public should be avoided. If you are unsure of how to behave, watch the local people and copy them.
Finally, if you wish to take a gift, do some research. The idea of the perfect gift is different greatly from country to country, and one of the easiest ways to make someone angry is to give the wrong gift.
