Using Your Right Hand
Just like what we all know, when you meet someone for the first time in Saudi Arabia, it means that you will use your right hand to shake theirs. However, it is not only common courtesy to shake others’ hands with your right hand. It is actually rude to use your left hand because the Saudis consider their left hand as unclean and they use it for other not-so-clean tasks.
