  • “So many countries, so many customs.” Any jet-setter will agree this good old proverb is true. In the age of globalization, going places has become an essential part of our life. We’re all well aware of the fact that while visiting a foreign country, we must obey certain local traditions and common rules.
    What would you do if you walked into a bathroom and instead of toilet paper, you found a bowl of water? And no instructions either! Or, what if warding off bad luck meant talking to birds at the park? Sure, these things may seem wacky to you, but they’re pretty normal customs in other countries. And some actually sound pretty fun!

    SUMMARY:
    - In Germany, if you’re 25 and single, your friends will often lead you to your birthday party with a string of old socks as you celebrate with drinks.
    - In the States, “pull my finger” is a risky - smelly - game. But in Scandinavia Austria, and Bavaria, Germany, finger pulling (or Fingerhakeln) is a competitive sport!
    - If you’re going on vacation and want to leave with as many good vibes as possible, sit down with your household first before you head out the door. In Russia, they believe that doing this ensures you have a good trip and wards off bad luck.
    - In Denmark, if it’s your 25th birthday or higher and you’re still single, your friends and family throw handfuls of cinnamon at you.
    - If you were to spit at your boss or a family member when you greeted them, it’d be considered pretty darn rude. But in the Maasai tribe in Kenya and northern Tanzania, spitting into their hands before a handshake is considered appropriate and respectful.
    - You might gift newlyweds with some sparkling new china, but in Germany, family and friends actually break dishes the night before a wedding!
    - In Venezuela, the early bird doesn’t necessarily get the worm. There, running late isn’t a problem the way it is in the US and other countries. When it comes to parties or even work meetings, arriving a few minutes late isn’t considered rude.
    - In South Africa, the tradition of chucking chairs, tables, and whatever furniture out the window onto the street for the New Year has been going strong since the end of apartheid.
    - Even if you’re naturally a leftie, using this hand is considered pretty rude in a lot of Middle Eastern countries. This is because the left hand is the designated “cleaning hand” in the bathroom and, therefore, it’s the dirty one.
    - f your biggest fear is doing your business in a restroom that’s run out of toilet paper, well…you might have some problems when visiting India. That’s because in most parts of this country, instead of toilet paper, people use water to cleanse their, uh, private areas.
    - In Thailand, there are tons of stray monkeys hanging around. And once a year in Lopburi, Bangkok, people dump over 6,600 pounds (3,000 kg) of fruits and veggies out for the little guys to munch on in what’s referred to as the Monkey Buffet Festival.
    - While we consider it bad luck to see the bride before the big day, people in Tidong, Indonesia believe using the toilet 3 days after the wedding is bad luck.
    - Americans are used to having copious amounts of ice in their drinks. But in many places in Europe, having little or no ice at all is the norm.
    - If you ever visit Fiji, you’ll likely be greeted by a cocktail containing juice from squeezed roots served in a wooden bowl known as Kava. And apparently, it has, shall we say “psychoactive effects.”

    fact number 6, in my opinion, in China, traditional weddings begin with the bride crying a month before the big day after a few days. After that, he was accompanied by his grandmother and other family members who had woken up. This is similar to traditional weddings in Indonesia, where there are various unique and interesting traditions, such as Javanese Pingitan, Minangkabau Traditional Groom Proposing, and Sinamot.

    ​Actually, a lot of indian traditions and the culture is scientifically proven that they are actually beneficial like eating with your hand and sitting on bare floor to eat food including the part that we have silver toe-rings on our feet after we're married plus the bindi that goes in between the eyebrows but many people actually consider it to be different and a bit weird tho but it all has a reason behind it and you'll understand why if you go through Indian history and all thier traditional backstories. This is what makes Indian culture unique among all the foreign countries, Maybe that's why many people are fascinated by this glorious country. I'm proud to be an indian😊

      ​Actually, a lot of indian traditions and the culture is scientifically proven that they are actually beneficial like eating with your hand and sitting on bare floor to eat food including the parts that we have silver toe-rings on our feet after we're married plus the bindi that goes in between the eyebrows.

    8:03 It's not water in a bowl(I know that for a fact as I'm a local here), it's a hand-shower-like thing to clean that has a button to spray water, just like a hand shower but with a button to spray the water. We do use Toilet Paper though, we wash our um..... (Private areas) with our left hand, we use toilet paper sometimes too, then wash our hands at the bathroom/restroom(/loo for British people)/washroom sink with soap.

    For those who wants to know how to clean with water.
    1.We use basically our left hand to clean because right hand is for eating our food.
    2.Yes, we directly clean with our hand. No pice of cloth or paper is used.
    3. For WC toilet we have option like jet spray or Bidets to make the process easier.
    4. After that cleaning your hand with soap is a must.
    Last but not the least, my mother taught us since childhood to remove entire clothes before sitting on a toilet sit. Same rules are being followed by so many families in our community.

    For India... we consider paper as knowledge and hence use water, You will find special sprays that are somewhat like mini hoses in all the households. I have used both water and toilet paper for a certain amount of time. when switching between the two it may take some time to adjust but after that you just prefer the one you are used to.
