when meeting a girl's parents in russia, is it proper to kiss the mother on both cheeks??
I know in europe the people kiss each other on each cheek when greeting each other. is it the same in russia too???
I am not sure about Russia but in India it is appropriate to fell on your knee and kiss your girl’s mother toes.
Be natural. Act like you would do in your home town. Russian are flexible. They can appreciate kisses and hugs or just smile and “hello”. Anyway you always can use Indian approach.
Well, I can tell you, that in my family when I come to visit my parents we kiss each other. But they would never expect my boyfriend kiss them. A handshaking with father is enough, and with mother just a natural smile:) I think that they would be emberrased and would not understand what he wants, if he would try to kiss them:)
