You Swedes need more hugging in your life!
What about kisses?
Here the normal behaviour is to give people you know a kiss on the cheek when you meet and when you leave. Unless it's a more formal situation, then you shake hands.
I kiss (on the cheek) everyone I know when I arrive somewhere and when I leave.


It's a normal behaviour in Poland as well.


Yep. I had to get used to this when I was in Poland. In America, we hug and kiss family and some close friends, but not to the same extent as the Poles. Americans need a certain amount of personal space because everything is so spread out and big here! In Europe I had to get used to not having any personal space and feeling cramped all the time. And it's not just a kiss on one cheek. It's always both. :) I liked it. It's cute.
