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

Answer this Question

We asked people in Paget 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 Paget, it's considered rude to not greet people with a friendly "hello" or "good day" before starting a conversation. Bermudians value politeness and good manners, so always remember to say "please" and "thank you". Avoid discussing sensitive topics such as race, politics, and religion unless you are very familiar with the person you are talking to. Bermudians are proud of their island and culture, so avoid making negative comments about the country or comparing it unfavorably to other places. Dress code is important in Bermuda. While it's a tropical island, it's not appropriate to wear beachwear anywhere other than the beach or pool. Men should avoid wearing shorts in formal settings, and women should avoid revealing clothing. It's also considered impolite to refuse an invitation to someone's home. If you're invited, it's customary to bring a small gift for the host. Public drunkenness is frowned upon in Bermuda, so be mindful of your alcohol consumption. Lastly, Bermudians are generally conservative and private people, so avoid asking personal questions or prying into their private lives," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Paget, Bermuda.
