German Social Manners Part 2

Part 2: KISSING
Unlike in some countries, kissing somebody on both cheeks to say hello and goodbye is only acceptable when you’re good friends or family members! NEVER do that to strangers or in business situations. It’s also more common among women than men. Guys usually prefer a pat on the back or something similar.
To be on the safe side wait for the reaction of the German person. And even if it’s only a handshake, accept it and respect the physical distance that’s being kept. :)
