How To Dress When Traveling Through Latin America
Posted on February 11th, 2010 No comments
Throughout my book The Global Dating Revolution, I give a lot of tips and advice for those of you that will take the leap into International Dating and actually travel abroad to see what the women are like in other countries.On Page 250 of The Global Dating Revolution I give the following tips on dressing while your traveling through Latin America. I feel most of these will be applicable to Eastern Europe and South East Asia as well:
Don’t dress like a tourist, with shorts, loud Hawaiian shirt and camera around your neck. Dress casual or business casual with a nice pair of khakis, jeans and either a nice button down shirt or nice t-shirt. Dress for your body type. If you’re very thin, you might want to wear more then one layer, and don’t wear clothes that are too loose fitting. By the same token if you’re a husky guy, no horizontal stripped shirts and nothing that’s too tight:
- Bring plain t-shirts or ones that might have an interesting designs. No American sports team shirts or football Jerseys. People will already know you’re a foreigner, you don’t want to advertise on your forehead.
- A nice pair of shoes and a belt (preferable the same color). You can bring two pairs, one brown and one black, with matching belt. Make sure you bring some socks to match the shoes.
- Don’t wear a lot of “bling” or expensive jewelry. If you want to wear a watch to tell time, get a $10 digital watch. A friend of mine was in Prague, and strangers would ask him what time it was because they were checking out his watch to see if it was worth steeling.
- Be well groomed everyday. That means get a nice haircut, cut the nose hairs, ear hairs, and neck hairs. Shave. Apply a nice smelling aftershave. Floss, use mouthwash, and brush your teeth, tongue, and roof of mouth well. Wear deodorant. These are all basics, but sometimes they do need to be mentioned.
- Wear Cologne. One or two squirts during the day (depending on the strength of the cologne) and maybe 5 when going out at night.
- If you want to be more comfortable a pair of tennis shoes or new balance type of sneakers will do. You can even wear these at night to most places. Dress codes are not as strict as in the United States, and some people like to dance a lot, so they prefer to wear sneakers to go out, even when they wear button down shirts to go out.
- Button down shirts are good at night, if you’re going to wear them during the day, don’t get to fancy. T-shirts are usually fine during the day, and even at night for bars and clubs.
- Most people wear jeans, doesn’t matter whether it’s at night or day. So bring a few pairs of jeans. A pair of khakis. Maybe some dress slacks if you’re going out to the nicest places in town.
