- Approach meetings with patience; while lateness is generally accepted, punctuality is expected for formal business. Use formal titles (Señor/Señora) when addressing elders or authority figures. Greet strangers and passersby with simple greetings like 'buenos días.' Avoid the term 'indio' when referring to indigenous people; use 'campesino' or 'indígena' instead.
