GREETING & SOCIAL NORMS

In Argentina, we say hello with one kiss on the cheek or simply saying “hola!” 👋 Argentinian people are very friendly and greet everyone in the house. Going straight to your bedroom after entering the house without exchanging a few words can give off a negative vibe. 

Meals are a true social moment in Argentina. After each meal, families or friends will stay a long while at the table and talk about everything and nothing! This is called the “Sobremesa”. This is the perfect time to practice your Spanish skills! It is uncommon to finish dinner and quickly leave the table. 

SECURITY

Never forget to lock up the building/apartment when you leave the house. Hosts take security seriously.
