- First impressions last, this is especially true with Italians, so ensure to demonstrate propriety and respect when greeting people.
- Between strangers it is sufficient to shake hands, with direct eye contact and a smile.
- If you are greeting someone who is more than a stranger to you then it is usual for air-kissing on both cheeks to be added as well as a pat on the back between men.
- Only call someone by their first name if invited to do so.
