Worse when there is a birthday and you are supposed to congratulate the whole crowd personally with their brother/cousin/friend/neighbor/colleague's birthday, the ladies with three kisses.

I Lived in Belgium for 12 years, there male friends kiss each other, like the italians...one thing I never liked

You do them gradually, you don't have to greet everyone at once.

I like kisses, I miss them living in the US (my close American friend kiss me, I taught them :bunny. I have done up to 4 kisses (number depending on the location, but 2 has become standard lately).

Hugs are faster, but I prefer kisses, I am needy :smoke:

We gave American friends and in the beginning we were surprised how shy and diffident, inhibited american women are kissing a male person as greeting.

Any god tips for getting deals from DR to Paris? Departing SDQ or PUJ?
I've heard AirFrance doesn't have good customer support if anything comes up. Any thoughts?
Any firsthand info on airlines would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I just booked for SD Brussels, round-trip 409,00 euro's. Tuifly.be
I upgraded to a kind of vip class,  But the basic is 409

It depends on the ethnicity of the Americans, growing up in an "Italian" family we had to kiss everyone in the room when we arrived and again when we left. It's second nature to us, although we don't do the double kiss of the European Italians, but we usually add a hug. My brother hated it.

You are right AE, they are "english-americans" from the north.
