How to behave when traveling to other countries?
The fifth section
The country of Georgia
Usually, when traveling to neighboring countries, people pay less attention to the dos and don’ts of behavior because they think that they will have less challenges in dealing with people due to common cultural or historical points, but the fact is that wrong and unpleasant behaviors from the host society These countries are very impressive and have caused irritation and even strained relations in some cases.
Georgia is a European, Asian country. This country is very traditional and has many differences with the atmosphere of other European countries.
Consider these things when traveling to Georgia:
Georgians are very hospitable, if you are invited for dinner or lunch, be sure to accept the invitation.
During the meal, try to take a small amount of each type of food so that you can use all the prepared foods because otherwise the host will be offended.
If you are invited to a party, the best gifts are flowers and imported chocolates.
Never choose an even number of flowers ordered. Even numbers are reserved for funerals.
In parks and public space, if someone is sitting on a bench, it is better to consider this space personal and do not expect them to share the bench space with you.
Under no circumstances should you call women in parks, restaurants, streets, or public spaces to make friends or ask for a number, Georgian society never likes this behavior.
Shake hands when greeting, but don’t forget handshake etiquette.
Never call people by their first name, always use the prefix Ms. or Mr. except for very close friends.
At the end of the trip, if you are asked if you had a good time or not, if you intend to always remain in the mind of a Georgian, answer yes, you had a great time, Georgians will never forget your kind answer.
