What is the deal with tipping in Canada?
Tipping culture varies a bit province by province. In Quebec, for example, waiters make less than minimum wage because it's assumed they will get tips. 15% there is standard. Since the sales tax you pay in Quebec is roughly 15%, just add the same amount as the tax on your bill. You'll be expected to tip even for the littlest things, like a bartender handing you a beer bottle. If you don't tip you might get a guilt trip, but use your own discretion. over 10 years ago

what places are a must to visit or activities to do in Colombia?thanks!!
Bogotá is a fantastic city and worth spending some time. Villa de Leyva is a charming colonial town. San Gil has some great outdoor activities like caves, rapel, and rafting. Tayrona National Park is a must. Just amazing. And of course, you have to go to Cartagena. If you only go to one place in Colombia, make it Cartagena. over 10 years ago
