Taboos

Kissing in public is not common.
In homes, you will most likely be expected to take off your shoes but be aware not to cross your legs so the bottom of your foot is pointing toward someone.
It is considered rude to point at someone.
It is also considered rude to cross your arms while facing someone.
Be aware that during the fasting month of Ramadan, observant Muslims cannot eat, drink, or smoke between sunrise and sunset. It's best to avoid doing so in Muslim majority areas.
