  • Is not real that in Japan they only say "rain" (雨)... they say (雨がふります) which mean "it's raining", like in USA.

    And in Italy we don't do those stupid movements...

    It seems you wanna teach something you don't know... you're only teaching stereotypes, nothing else...

    I hope people will not believe in this kid of things!

  • LOL in the middle east we give a kiss on the cheek ! but without touching the cheek with our mouth hehe i dont know how to explain it u should check it on youtube lol

  • Thank you very much. I'm currently an international student in the US and I'm really facing all these types of different cultures everywhere.

    Such a nice show :)

  • These are always fun to watch :)

  • this is true to a certain extent. in asia and even in different countries in asia different people react differently, some follow the 'western culture' and give handshakes even hugs occasionally. But, for the more traditional countries they tend to bow more often.

  • SVOCA

  • Era un muñeco de trapo el que se ha asomado a achucharle?

  • Its wrong. Actually totally opposite. The personal space between two westerner is large while among asian its close. western people walks and behave like an individual identity while Asian behave like a group.

  • If had seem this video before, i woud have spared few embarrassing situation in this coutry. Great video!
