| Cultural Insight |
| Sydney: Now it's time for a quick cultural insight. |
| Asger: In formal situations, Danish people commonly greet each other by shaking hands. On the other hand, if we meet someone we are very friendly with, no matter their gender, it's common to give hugs. Don't be afraid to try it out with your Danish friends! |
