You greet someone by kissing, but not actually kissing–just touching cheeks and making a kissing sound…
Oh, the Dutch do that too! But it’s kind of a regional thing, mostly in the west and the south. It’s usually three kisses, right, left, right. Also, you don’t do it if you just meet someone, you have to know them pretty well before you do that.
The French do that as well! (I’m not from France, but I got to go there a couple of years ago, plus my family–including myself–really enjoy the culture) But still, I think it’s only when you know them well.
In Ireland people are apparently almost always late. It’s not part of the culture really, it just happens!
