DAILY SCHEDULE
We work on a different clock than majority of people the world over, sometimes to the detriment of the foreign stomach. It is true that we normally have a light breakfast (coffee and a toast or a croissant), and that lunch is not served until around 2 pm. This is the main meal of the day, and it contains an entry dish, a main dish and a desert. Dinner is served from 9 pm. onwards, and it is generally light again. We are very respectful with meals, which are normally used as a moment to meet your family and talk about your daily activies. We also love meeting our friends to enjoy a nice meal at a restaurant or a tabern.
BUSINESS HOURS
It is common for small shops and stores to close in the afternoons for lunch.
GREETINGS
We greet each other (at least woman to woman and man to woman) with two kisses, one on each check (left to right).
Men generally shake hands. Physical proximity is much more common than in some other European countries, so do not to take offense if you feel like someone is in your personal space.We hope that these hints are useful for you,
Good-bye! Hasta pronto!
