World 2 · Birthdays
Greeting time. A Dutch acquaintance leans in. How many cheek kisses?
Correct answer: B
Three — right, left, right
Correct — three kisses, alternating cheeks. Between women, and between men and women. Men greet men with a firm handshake. Commit fully or don't start.
Even serieus
Seriously though
Three cheek kisses is the classic greeting among family and good friends — women with women, men with women. Men shake hands, and colleagues usually get a handshake too.
