“Once you understand and appreciate other people’s cultural backgrounds, then you can also connect with them more” Anonymous

Now we will explain the reasons how we arrived at this meaning. When people talk about certain symbols in a specific culture, this must take into account all the physical movements we make to communicate or express an idea.

In the majority of cases, there is much variety in the way people greet each other. For example, at the moment of introducing oneself, introducing a new person in a social link, or a sporadic greeting with someone we know or close friend. Certain actions, verbal communication, facial and physical gestures help us to express our greetings to another person.

These manifestations often vary according to the country we are in and there are some cultural traits that appear in every social interaction that a person has. We apply the term ‘symbols’ to those manifestations, which implicitly and unconsciously accompany each society.
