38 Things That People Do Different Across the World

How to behave in a foreign country? When going on a trip, experienced tourists learn information about the etiquette rules and the sights of the country they are going to visit. Because if you don’t know the subtleties of the rules that the locals have, you might find yourself in an awkward situation. You could give someone the wrong gift in China, or offend your cab driver in Australia by sitting there quietly minding your own business.

Yes, there are some local customs that can confuse even the most experienced travelers. Of course, it’s impossible to be ready for everything and learn all the etiquette rules of other countries. This is why locals forgive a lot of the mistakes that tourists make. But the people that don’t want to look rude have to follow all the rules as carefully as possible.

    I’ve not heard u have 2 greet a magpie in UK. Superstitious ppl look out 4 a second as 1 means sorrow n 2 means joy. Most times magpies fly around in 2÷ anyway but greeting one is bs

    I”ve lived in Canada for many years, but no one ever said you can’t give flowers to a friend. So, I am extremely confused. Also, I am originally from India and there we greet people by putting our hands together and saying sat sri akaal.
