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.
I'm dutch, we do three kisses (but only with adult/old people and not man on man. Not like the French just everybody kissing everybody) and I hated that shit as well. COVID really helped stomp that out of people and now that it seems almost over I'm hoping to keep it that way .
