Tipping while in a foreign country can often be a challenge to figure out; How much do you leave behind? Do you tip at all? The folks over at Mashable have put together a great infograph summarizing how much to tip when dining out around the globe. For example Mashable states it is customary to not leave any tips when in parts of Asia.

What can make it even more challenging is tipping rules not only vary by country, but also by region and scenario. Conde Nast Traveler has put together an in-depth guide on what to tip while in The Middle East, Africa, The Americas, Asia/Pacific and Europe.  CN Traveler suggests, when in Mexico, it is better to buy a piece of a local artisan’s work than to leave him or her a cash tip
