Hiya!
Sorry if I sound stupid but I once was told that Russian men like to kiss each other on the LIPS(!) when helloing or goodbyeing. Is that so or is it another wacky myth?

Emm… sometimes. Especially when get a little drunk. But I guess it is characteristic of lots of men from all over the world

So as far as I can see it’s Hugh Jackman who likes to kiss Russian men on the lips! LOL
