It's customary to greet someone in Britain with a firm handshake, particularly if you're meeting him for the first time. Men should grasp women's hands more lightly than they would another man's. In social situations, introduce the man to the woman first. When meeting someone new, pay attention to your posture. Good posture will make you appear more confident.

Kissing on the cheek is a greeting for friends or people you haven't seen in a long time. Avoid all other physical contact or keep to a minimum. Hugs or other kinds of embracing or touching of the shoulders or elbow are not appropriate. "Hi," "hello," or "morning/afternoon/evening" without the "good" are informal greetings that you should not sue unless you're familiar with the person.

Although people in Germany usually prefer to greet non-family members with handshakes instead of the cheek kissing that is customary in most of Europe, cheek kissing is still a common type of greeting in many German-speaking countries. However, the rules regarding the number of kisses to give and knowing when and who to kiss change from place to place. The good news is that when you meet someone for the first time, you can usually just shake hands. Then just watch how other people interact. You'll quickly recognize the pattern.
