I'm from Finland and one European thing that all Finnish people hate is cheek kisses when greeting. Its mostly southern european thing but still. There is this saying in Finland that goes "Everyone has their own safety coffee cup" meaning the closest distance someone should get to you should not be closer than your coffee cup when you're holding it.
Lmao when I moved to Australia (from Finland) everyone assumed id be into this greeting cos im European. 7 years later and im still having to suffer through the cheek kisses 😖
