RANDOM TIDBITS

In most of the Middle and Far East, it is considered an
insult to point your feet (particularly the soles) at
another person or to display them in any way, for example,
by resting with your feet up.

In most Asian countries, a business card is seen as an
extension of the person it represents; therefore, to
disrespect a card — by folding it, writing on it, or just
shoving it into your pocket without looking at it — is to
disrespect the person who gave it to you.

The “okay” sign (thumb and forefinger touching to make a
circle) is very far from okay in much of the world. In
Germany and most of South America, it is an insult, similar
to giving someone the finger in the United States, while in
Turkey it is a derogatory gesture used to imply that someone
is homosexual.

In Greece, any signal that involves showing your open palm
is extremely offensive. Such gestures include waving, as
well as making a “stop” sign. If you do wish to wave goodbye
to someone in Greece, you need to do so with your palm
facing in, like a beauty pageant contestant or a member of
the royal family.

In many parts of the world, particularly Luxembourg,
Switzerland, and France, public gum-chewing is considered
vulgar, while in Singapore most types of gum have been
illegal since 1992 when residents grew tired of scraping the
sticky stuff off their sidewalks.

In many countries, particularly in Asia and South America,
it is essential to remove your shoes when entering someone’s
home, while in most of Europe it is polite to ask your host
whether they would prefer you to do so. The reason, as
anyone who’s ever owned white carpet will attest, is simple
hygiene and cleanliness.
