Greeting

Angel 1Thu, 27 Oct 2011 03:34:05 -0500
In greeting my Arabic friends we kiss on the cheek. My friend has explained pending on where you are from your kiss pattern could be different. So I have always copied what my friend from Jordan does. One kiss on the right cheek, one kiss on the left and ending with 2 kisses on the right again.
If you are from Egypt what pattern do you use?.

Hi Angel,

Sorry for the late reply!

Once on each cheek is pretty standard (right then left) but my advice would be to follow the other person's lead.

I hope that helps!
