Description
In this app you will learn about visiting manners while you are visiting an American family. Very initial information about American culture regarding visiting someone home and giving someone gifts.
Some of those manners are:
>> Gifts are usually only given on special occasions and are almost always accompanied by a card.
>> People tend to open gifts in front of the giver, either upon receiving them or later along with other presents.
>> For occasions that require a gift (e.g. birthday, wedding, baby shower), a modest value of about $25 is acceptable unless you know the recipient very well.
>> Call ahead if you will be arriving more than 10 minutes late to a small gathering of people.
>> People are generally expected to arrive to large parties 30 minutes to an hour late, especially if they don't know the host well. It can be considered socially awkward to arrive on-time to a large party where many people do not know each other.
