"When in Rome - do as the Romans."

Saturday Proverb:

Proverb: "When in Rome - do as the Romans."






Meaning: 
Act the way that the people around you are acting. This phrase might come in handy when you're travelling abroad notice that people do things differently than you're used to.

History / Interesting Fact:

Why did this proverb single out Rome and Roman values to be emulated? It simply turns out that it was all to do with the travel arrangements of a couple of early Christian saints.
