It's okay to talk on your phone when you're outside a place of worship, but don't ever take a call in a cathedral, temple or tomb. Same goes for museums.

And while we're talking churches, a sermon is a bad time to wander around sightseeing. Sit down and take it in or come back later.

And your short-shorts, tank top and flip flops ensemble is not appropriate church attire. If you're not asked to cover up, you'll still earn a few dirty looks. (It's probably a good idea to save that particular outfit combo for your next beach vacation — for your own sake.) less

Unless you want your waiter to roll his eyes at you, skip the cafe au lait in France; order a cafe creme instead. And note, after mid-morning ordering any milk-based coffee drinks is considered passé; if you can't bear the idea of an espresso without milk, the noisette, which is an espresso shot with a bit of steamed milk, is a respectable alternative. (This is also true in Italy, where you should stick with an espresso anytime after breakfast.) less

It's also considered rude in France if you enter or exit a store without acknowledging the shopkeeper; a simple bonjour and au revoir (or bon soir) should suffice.

If you're a guest for a meal in Italy, be sure to clean your plate. The more you eat, the more your host is convinced you enjoyed the meal. And bread should be eaten with your meal, not beforehand.

Sex on the beach is always less sexy than it sounds, but sex on a beach in Dubai could land you in jail. Public sex is an extreme example, but when visiting the United Arab Emirates exposing too much skin is also a no-no, as is PDA or drinking alcohol outside of designated areas. less

The same public decency rules are generally true of other predominantly Muslim countries — swimming in a public pool wearing just a bikini would be a bad move — but note that specific codes of conduct vary. For instance, in both Iran and Saudi Arabia, laws require women to wear full-coverage loose clothing, and a headscarf is expected to avoid unwanted attention, but only required of foreign women in Iran; however, in Lebanon where the dress code is more liberal, jeans, skirts and short sleeves are the norm. less

Although quite innocent here, a thumbs-up gesture is one to avoid in Greece or Iran, where it's basically the middle-finger equivalent.

And then there's the thumb-to-pointer-finger OK sign. A-okay? Not so much in Greece and Turkey where it calls to mind a certain male body part and implies you think the recipient is gay.

It's fairly common knowledge that guests to Japanese homes should always remove their shoes, but visitors to the country should also know never to place their chopsticks upright in a bowl of rice — it's a common funeral pratice and invites death to the dinner table — or enter a public bath or hot spring without washing and rinsing first. less
