It's a reminder to embrace the local customs and traditions when you're in a new place, a piece of wisdom that has stood the test of time. 

But let's face it, we live in a digital age, and our beloved smartphones have become an extension of ourselves. So, it's only fitting that we modernise this age-old wisdom.
