Top 5 Facts on Peruvian Culture

When meeting for the first time, Peruvians will often shake hands. According to <a href="https://rischmoller.wordpress.com/2012/03/07/social-customs-of-peru-10-tips-to-help-you-adjust/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Rischmoller</a>, “When you get to know each other better, men will often pat each other on the back and women will kiss each other on one cheek. If you are a man meeting a woman for the first time, let the woman initiate the first greeting: She may offer her hand or approach for a cheek kiss. If you do not know someone really well or are first meeting them, you should address them by Señor, Señora or Señorita and their last name. Only close friends and family use first names, unless they ask you to call them by their first name. Professionals are addressed by their titles and last names.” <a href="https://medium.com/@hannahpinkerton/top-5-facts-on-peruvian-culture-bc25d6ade44f">Click Here</a>
