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

"When visiting Dalmatia, it's important to respect the local customs and traditions to avoid any cultural faux pas. Avoid discussing sensitive topics such as the Yugoslav wars and the country's political situation, as these can stir up strong emotions. Croatians are proud of their language, so try to learn a few basic phrases in Croatian. However, avoid using Serbian phrases or confusing the two languages, as this can be seen as disrespectful. In Dalmatia, it's common to greet people with a kiss on both cheeks. However, this is usually reserved for people who are close friends or family, so avoid doing this with people you've just met. When dining, keep in mind that Croatians usually eat in continental style, with the fork in the left hand and the knife in the right. Also, it's considered polite to finish all the food on your plate. If you're invited to someone's home, it's customary to bring a small gift, such as a bottle of wine or flowers. However, avoid giving chrysanthemums, as they are associated with funerals. Croatians are generally relaxed about dress code, but it's important to dress modestly when visiting religious sites. For women, this means covering your shoulders and knees, and for men, it means not wearing shorts or sleeveless shirts. Finally, Croatians value punctuality, so try to be on time for appointments and social gatherings. If you're going to be late, it's polite to call and let your host know," remarked another expat who made the move to Dalmatia, Croatia.
