When you travel to other countries,please follow their customs,just as the saying goes,"      .” Very often people who travel to the United States forget to tip (付小費) .It is usual to tip porters who help carry your bags? taxi drivers and waiters. Waiters expect to get a 15 % tip on the cost of your meal. Taxi drivers expect the same amount.

    In England,make sure to stand in a line even if there are only two of you. It's important to respect lines there. It's a good idea to talk about the weather. It's a favourite subject of conversation with the British.

    In Spain,it's a good idea to have a light meal in the afternoon if someone invites you for dinner. Peo?ple have dinner very late,and restaurants do not generally open until after 9 pm.

    In Arab countries,men kiss one another on the cheek (臉顛) .Your host may welcome you with a kiss on both cheeks. It is polite of you to do the same.

    In Japan,people usually give personal or busi?ness cards to each other when they meet for the first time. When a person gives you a card,don't put it into your pocket right away. The person expects you to read it.
