What’s the most interesting local custom you’ve encountered?

This is something new for me. Growing up in a small New England town in New Hampshire, there were no really interesting customs unless you count the “Blue Light Special” at the local K-Mart.

Now that I am much older and live in Brazil, the custom I find the most interesting is that when people meet, they always give a kiss or a hug. They kiss on each side, lean in, and touch cheeks with a kissing sound. Everybody does it. There are a few customs here, but that one is the most interesting. Beijo
