Dont make these cultural Mistakes when overseas! - Page 3

thanks for sharing this valid piece of info with us=)
now i know what to refer to if i ever plan on going to one of these countries without being embarrassed/insulted/humiliated
the eating thing is so true though....at first i thought it was only in my family, turns out its much broader than that..
thanks again

lols nice list. I am a kinda No shoes at home person as well... tho' it doesnt normally irritate me that much if guests wear it once in a while.. what i found extreamly annoying was - during school and uni days - ppl used to put their feet ON the table with their shoes on! AT lunch times right next to their food!!

haha wow this is rly interesting i never knew people could get offended by the littlest things...thanks for sharing :)

There are things that make us all different, but one thing that we all have in common are cultural norms.

Thanksss for informinggg

I am still weirded out when I wear shoes in house.

Kajareeeeeeeeeeeee kajareeeeeeeeeeeee 😆

ur Welcome 😊

i have been over seas many times...And one of the biggest cultural mistakes some1 can make is using sterotypes...

Like when i was in egypt a friend was doing the "Walk like an egyptian dance"...and he was advised that it was insulting...I agree, just being simple and nice is best in a far away place.
