Greetings are so important in Japanese culture! As is kindness. Not gonna lie, though, sometimes my American-ness can get in the way of interpreting kindness as such... It's really a bummer!
Given the many many stories I've heard from other expats I know I'm not the only one that has misinterpreted someone's kindness as condescension or conversation topic as a little odd.
Let me know in the comments what cultural confusions you've experienced!
Please be sure to share this show with any expats and friends and family members of expats.
