Things to know

When arriving in a new place, there are a millions of things to know and to learn, some things being more important than others—all of them useful in easing your life just a bit.
If you happen to stop by in Miami Beach for few days and sleep in a hotel, the reception will give you all the information you will need. But, if you stay longer, let’s say in apartment, you might have to learn from your own mistakes, sometimes paying a high price. For instance, a friend of ours had his scooter taken away by the Miami Beach Police Department only because he ignored the parking rules. (Never park on the sidewalk if there is a yellow line—even if it’s a faded yellow!)

In the United States, it is better to follow the rules because it is very easy to get arrested.

In this section, you will find information and links to better understand how different things work, from transportation to parking, health care to tipping, and much more.
