Etiquette of first meeting between countries
Australia
There is a nose touching ceremony in Australia. The more you touch, the better the relationship.
Europe
Italy, Spain and most European countries
In Italy, Spain and most European countries, two people greet each other by walking up and kissing each other on the cheek quickly: first on the right, then on the left. If you don't know each other very well, you can also shake hands to show friendship. This kind of greeting is common in most European countries.
Germany
A handshake is formal, accompanied by an almost imperceptible bow. Other contact, such as hugging and kissing on the cheek, is not recommended unless you are familiar with the host.
Australia
Australians usually shake hands when they meet for the first time and then say hello! But close friends may kiss each other on the cheek to show friendship.
France
French kissing etiquette is more complicated: kiss each other's right cheek first, and the number of kisses will be different in different regions. In some areas, only one kiss is needed, while in most parts of northern France, five kisses are needed. Just be flexible.
Britain, England
People dress very formally, so it's best not to have physical contact. You can hug, but no other physical contact.
the Netherlands
Dutch cheek kissing etiquette is to kiss three times in the order of right cheek-left cheek-right cheek. There is no kissing on the cheek between ordinary people, or between two men.
Korea and Korea
Koreans also bow and bow to each other when they meet, showing respect and gratitude.
Greece
In Greece, acquaintances shake hands to show friendship, and close people hug and kiss. In addition to kissing each other on the cheek twice, they clap their hands once, which makes their kiss look more like a well-designed slap in the face.
Brazil
Brazilian women kiss each other on the cheek much more frequently than men. For example, in Rio de Janeiro, two people kissed each other on the cheek twice, but official statistics show that the number of kisses on the cheek varies from one to three in different parts of Brazil. Single women usually kiss three times, but in some areas, kissing twice is more common.
Argentina
South Americans are usually very sensitive, and so are new friends. Generally, when we meet, we usually give a casual but incomplete hug, and then kiss each other on the right cheek.
Thailand
When Thai people meet, they should cross their hands on their chests to say hello. The method is to put your palms together on your chest. This is a greeting ceremony, equivalent to a handshake in the west. The higher the palm of your hand, the deeper the respect. Ordinary people should put their hands above their heads when they see the king. Young people should raise their hands to their foreheads when they meet their elders. Equal people should put their hands under their noses when they meet. The elder should return the gift to the younger generation, hold it to his chest, and keep his hands not higher than his chest. People of lower status or younger age should pay their respects first.
