People’s behaviour varies from country to country. When traveling to a different country, people should copy the behaviour and habits of the inhabitants of the country they visit. Do you agree or disagree?
Yes
To be accepted by locals more closely “When in Rome, do as Roman do”, rendering them a chance to look at the host ways of life more closely
THis can also prevent them from offending local aspirations
Protection from becoming victims of crimes
No
Against the globalized ethos: those visiting are there to experience diversity and not abandon their own beliefs.
Harboring hostile attitudes may hamper the reputation of the country and keep visitors away: affecting the tourism badly, and earnings in foreign exchange
Affecting the relationships between societies
Many suggest that those undertaking journeys to diverse regions of the globe must embrace the ways of the life of the host society. This proposal is quite prudent, and promises rich experiences to those visiting alien surroundings
To begin with, making adjustments in the attitude to complement the native lifestyles of the destination can help visitors prevent themselves from becoming the subject of wrath(anger) of the locals, and instead being accepted more readily by the latter; they feel that their customs have been acknowledged. This can precipitate(result in creating ) a conducive environment, wherein one can explore differences and also uniqueness of the culture being visited, and create nostalgic memories, thereby fulfilling the fundamental purpose of travelling. Several travelogues written by avid backpackers (keen travellers ) clearly highlight the relevance of this aspects as most were well-received by people of countries they went to simply because they followed local traditions and even etiquettes.
On top of that, following this strategy can be of great avail to the ones visiting other parts of the world by virtue of safeguarding them from criminal activities and unwarranted situations. It has been often observed that foreign travellers tend to become easy victims of petty crimes, or overcharging. However, familiarising oneself with ways endemic to the destination nation such as wearing the local attire, learning and using the local dialect, and so forth, allows mingling with natives effortlessly, and being treated equally. A growing number report that when they behaved the same way, a national would do, illegal elements stayed away and the shopkeepers treated them with respect and with equality.
In hindsight, it can be safely asserted that when in Rome, do as Romans do,so that one can enjoy their travel, experience the customs and traditions of host societies more closely.
Intro 1:- In times, when more and more are undertaking journeys to diverse regions of the globe their conduct has come under a critical scanner, and many suggest that they should embrace the ways of life of the host society.
