can you give me any indication what kind of clothing,footwear etc to take with me for going out for tea etc? i guess when im working i will be in work gear so that wont matter to much but im just a little concerned what to take for going out and about on my own time..
is it a safe place to be and is there anything in particular i should watch out for?

Try to stick to natural fabrics where possible especially during the summer months.
Save the flip flops and sandals for the weekends though and avoid wearing them to dinner in posh hotels
