8. Giving a firm handshake – Philippines
The way you greet someone varies a lot depending on where you are in the world. Some places require kisses, other places hugs, but handshakes are probably the most common type of greeting.
That’s the case in the Philippines, but contrary to most places, a firm handshake is actually frowned upon. The proper way to do it is to offer a weak handshake and men should wait for the ladies to extend their hands.
