Important of greeting
In last chapter, we went over “making initial contacts across cultures”. But I still think that greeting is the most important factor in hospitality, too. For this reason, I would like to go over this material again. In the business, first impression is the most important and impact thing that people may remember for long-time. Therefore, greeting is the most important factor to make people memorable and treat people.

Different way to greeting in different cultures.

However, in business, they call people’s last name after Mr., Mrs., or Ms.- Their ancestors are from UK. Therefore, they have similar way to greeting people.

Russia- There is a big difference between the Russian tradition of
hospitality and a friendly attitude towards guests in other countries of the world. The legends about the breadth of the Russian soul have a very good reason to exist. Russians love to accept guests and make great hosts. When in Russia, you don't need to wait for a special occasion like a birthday or a holiday to visit a friend or a neighbor. Russians like visiting each other, meeting in friendly companies for dinner, or just stopping by to catch up on what's going on. The latter is called "to drop in for a cup of coffee"
