I've probably over tipped in some places, under tipped in others and don't care.
In all that time I've only had a tip returned once and not because I tipped but because it was deemed to be too much.
Do you try to adopt any local customs or do you do everything like you would have done at home? I'm just wondering that while the tipping thing hasn't caused any problems that you were aware of yet, have you encountered difficulties or caused offense through other actions?
