#1 SHAKE HANDS. You should handshake both men and women. “How are you?” is a proper question demanding an answer. Finns naturally keep their distance to other people, especially when it comes to people they don’t personally know. In Finland, if somebody is your acquaintance, it’s enough (and polite, too) to say hello and continue your way. ‘Bring your own drink’ is another Finnish concept. You should always aim to eat all the food on your plate.
