Etiquette in Russia, what are the rules?

                                           Etiquette

            When you travel a lot you have to know some rules of your behavior. I want to tell you part of Russian etiquette, because I know it better than other. So. firstly Russian people break all the stereotypes about our nation. We don't drink vodka a lot and haven't bears on the streets, we are very kind and friendly nation, in general. Also if you want to visit Russia, you have to know about our strange climate and about beautiful view.

• If you meet a friend on the street Russian and imprudently ask "How are you?", he stops, Take a deep breath  and would start the most detailed manner to enlighten you. It will list all of their ills and ailments of his wife; He tells what happened after he followed the advice of a doctor; you know how he feels at the moment; He will tell you what the school success of his son and the teacher said that the last parent meeting. Never, never ask a Russian, "How are you?", if you do not really want to know how was his work day and what he ate for breakfast today.
• Not bad in mind that in different cultures there is a difference in how close you need to be from the interlocutor and how often you are allowed to touch it during a call. For one experiment, Puerto Ricans, sitting at a restaurant table, touch each other 180 times per hour, the French - 110 British - never. Russian, unfortunately, no one had, but you can be sure that they are clearly somewhere between Puerto Ricans and the French.
•  Russian usually welcome guests with slippers in their hands, as a sign that they can feel "at your home" 

                 Of course each country has its own customs, but how interesting to learn the custom of other countries! I would love to read your comments where you can tell me your rules of behavior. Thank you for attention!
