Culture
Uraho means “good day” and is appropriate for formal greetings. Murabo means “hello, everyone” is appropriate for groups.
A handshake is the common form of greeting. Offer the right hand in a horizontal position and grasp each other close to the wrist. They then embrace lightly while touching cheeks, right side first, then left, then right again.
Family Dynamics: Chairs are typically reserved for men; women and children sit on the floor. At meals, men usually eat first, with women and children following later. However, visitors get special treatment and receive the best chairs, food, and drink.
