Try different types of food you wouldn't normally get, there's nothing more annoying than those who stick to "comfort" foods (even if the restaurant doesn't have it on their menu).
Don't announce in a loud voice that you're from out of town.
Always be aware when you get stuck in a crowd where people are brushing up against you, there are "muggers" who work in threes and you don't notice because the person in front of you is the "distraction".
If you are there for an extended stay, be observant and try to blend in clotheswise as much as possible.
If you are in a different country with a language difference, have a hotel business card to give to your taxi driver.
Be resilient, laidback, bite your tongue, and be patient. This will save your memories of your vacation and not confirm to people of that region their negative stereotypes of YOUR region.
