Mindful meoweler tips

Be respectful of local customs

Remember to dress modestly and remove your shoes before entering homes or mosques. Females should cover their heads as a sign of respect. Avoid public displays of affection.

Be cautious of security risks

Maimanah is located in a volatile region. Be cautious of areas that are known to be dangerous, don't travel alone, and keep a low profile.
