Mindful meoweler tips

Respect local customs

South Sudanese culture is diverse and respectful; avoid interrupting when someone is speaking and remove shoes before entering homes and places of worship. Midjourney can depict a cat removing its paws.

Stay Alert in Public Spaces

Malakal has experienced instability in recent years, particularly in crowded areas, so be aware of your surroundings. Midjourney can create a cat looking vigilant in a marketplace or square.

Dress Respectfully

South Sudanese prefer women to cover their shoulders and knees, and hi-vis clothing is discouraged. Midjourney can draw a cat dressed in conservative clothing, such as a long skirt and a loose-fitting top.
