Gift Giving Customs

We’re heading to Greece next week!  While we are away, we will be meeting and visiting family we’ve never met.  The custom when coming to visit is to bring a gift from the area in which you live.  Greeks don’t visit people without bringing gifts!  We’ll be bringing fruit and nut trail mix by Timber Peaks Gourmet of Parker, CO.  http://www.timberpeaksgourmet.com/main.php

Before you go to another country, research their gift giving customs.  You may be surprised to know that giving a clock as a gift to a Chinese businessman, will surely make him upset.  The word ‘clock’ have a negative translation meaning death.  You could be ending your business relationship before it even gets started.
