Melanie Johnston was our only winner last week as she correctly guessed all five random questions...that takes some serious skill!
This week's questions test our understanding of other cultures and especially what not to do in certain countries. I'll tell you what you're not to do and you must match the country with it. Here's an example: In this country it is considered rude to suck on your chopsticks. Answer: China
The answers are any of these countries: Kenya, Portugal, Thailand, Brazil, Arab Countries, and only use each country once. Here are the questions, so start matching the right country.
1. In this country don't give the "OK" sign (it's an insult)
2. In this country never sit with the soles of your shoe facing someone.
3. Using your bread to soak up juices from your meal is very bad manners in this country.
4. The "gods" of this country sometimes dwell on the doorstills of homes so you never step on the doorsill when entering a house.
5. In this country you never accept a gift with your left hand.
