I've seen so many lists like this when traveling between and among America's embassies in Europe and the Middle East. Don't do this, don't do that, and for god's don't ever do that one! 🤣

@sarabee1995 I think this was an English test of mine lol, I found it among the stuff I had archived from school that I've just purged today. Sorta a kill two birds with one stone thing (learn about foreign culture while you're also learning the language). If it was purely about etiquette it would've been in Italian

That "as we do in the United States" makes me thing my teacher was just lazy and ripped off something from yours lol
