each other by their first names. When meeting someone for the
first time, it is usual to shake the person's right hand with your
right hand. People who do not know each other generally do not
kiss or hug when meeting. Australians show respect by looking
people in the eye, however they don’t stand as close or have as
much physical contact (such as hugs and kisses) as other
cultures.
O You may find that your Australian friends have difficulty
pronouncing your name, at first. Be patient and prepared that you
may need to repeat your name or say it slowly at the beginning.
As friendships develop, you may find that your friends give you a
nickname, which is very common in Australia and is a form of
endearment.

most people watch the finals of
major sporting events, even if they
don't normally have an interest in

Australia. Women make up nearly 50%
of the workforce and most women remain
in the workplace after they marry, and
