- Dress modestly in urban areas, especially for women. Treat all locals with respect, recognizing them as equals. Always ask permission before photographing people. Be mindful that giving out money or gifts can compromise the local population's dignity. Learning basic Haitian Creole phrases is recommended. Patience is advised, as the pace of life can be slow.
