People in SI are generally very friendly. Be nice, dont be snobby and you will make heaps of frens.

People in SI dont take critism that well. Do it with respect or they will take things personally

Treat people how you want to be treated; with repsect...and yes don't through your money around tumas as it can make people feel shame....
