I have a japanese friend, and he told me that in his country the people are so serious. They only accept greetings with a handshake. In my country, Mexico, the people are very friendly. Always greetings withour friends or family are a kiss on the cheek, a hug, a pat on the back, I think the mexicans are so affectionate, loving all people. Sometimes the greetings are formal but almost all the time we prefer to be affectionate.hi good morning
