   ENGLISH MARATHON


  Host: Jeffery
  (一)Touching 1 Someone Where It's Offensive: Korea, Thailand, China, Europe, the Middle East.
  What's Offensive In Mediterranean 2 countries, if you refrain from touching someone's arm when talking to them or if you don't greet them with kisses or a warm embrace, you'll be considered cold.
  But backslap someone who isn't a family member or a good friend in Korea, and you'll make them uncomfortable.
  In Thailand, the head is considered sacred--never even pat a child on the head.
  What You Should Do Instead Observe and follow.
  In Eastern countries remember that touching and public displays of affection are unacceptable.
  In places like Qatar and Saudi Arabia, men and women are forbidden from interacting, let along touching
  (二)Blowing Your Nose Where It's Offensive: Japan, China, Saudi Arabia, France.
  What's Offensive Some cultures find it disgusting to blow your nose in public-- especially at the table.
  The Japanese and Chinese are also repelled 3 by the idea of a handkerchief.
  What You Should Do Instead If traveling through Eastern and Asian countries, leave the hankies at home and opt 4 for disposable tissues instead.
  In France as well as in Eastern countries, if you're dining and need to clear your nasal passages, excuse yourself and head to the restroom.
