You may say 'ojama shimasu' when you enter. You should remove your shoes in the entrance, and may put on slippers if they are provided. (If the home has any tatami floors, you should not wear slippers on them; instead, you should only wear socks or go barefoot, as tatami can be easily damaged.) It is also polite to bring a gift, typically a food item or alcohol. If you are staying for a length of time, you may be invited to take a bath. In this case, if the home has an 'ofuro,' there are some special rules.
In Japanese homes with 'ofuro,' there is a tiled area with a drain in the floor separate from the bathtub. Here you may cleanse yourself with the detachable shower head as you normally would, using soap/shampoo as you wish. Once you're clean, and have rinsed away all of the soap/shampoo, you may enter the 'ofuro' (bathtub). The water is usually quite warm and very relaxing. Once you've had enough, do not drain the water, as it is reused.
When going to the toilet, make sure to remove your house slippers and put on the bathroom slippers.

What are the table manners in Ecuador?
international dining etiquetteEcuadorDining etiquette in Ecuador is similar to the rules of dining etiquette in the other Andean and South American countries. The dining etiquette information below presents Ecuadorian variations from general dining etiquette of Andean and South American as found on the Colombian dining etiquette page. Dining etiquette. If you need to call a waiter in a restaurant, raise your hand subtly, catch his eye, and softly say senor or mozo (for a waiter, specifically). Contrary to the Colombian custom, you probably will not be invited into an Ecuadorian home for dinner, at least at first, but you will likely be invited into their home for a party; parties start very late, around 10 P.M., with people often not arriving until 11 P.M., and they go till and past dawn. A party is a Saturday night event, exclusively. The meal, if there is one, is usually breakfast, just before people leave after dawn has broken. The idea is to drink, dance, and have fun; have your dinner before you set out for the party because the only food there will typically be snacks and appetizers.
