Young people may greet each other in a less formal way, giving each other a hug or a big kiss on the left cheek only.
21. Russia
In Russia, the typical greeting for men is a firm handshake. Handshakes between men and women are not common unless they are introduced to each other for the first time. If a man shakes a woman’s hand, the handshake is usually softer. It is still considered gallant for a man to kiss a woman’s hand if they are in an informal situation.
Women usually say “Hello” to each other if they are not close or kiss each other once on the cheek if they are close friends. Men can also kiss women on the cheek if they are friends or relatives. Men usually hug each other if they are close friends and haven’t seen each other for a while but they do not kiss. Older men may kiss each other to show respect.

In Italy people usually greet their friends by hugging them, and if they are close (or a part of their family) they kiss each other on the cheeks twice. Italians always hug and kiss their good friends regardless of whether they are men or women.
Sometimes, especially when parting with a friend or saying goodbye, they will “send” kisses to each other with one or even two hands! This gesture says that they love them and will miss them. It is also a popular custom in Italy (especially in the south) to offer friends a coffee when meeting outside or at home.
23. Greece
Greeks are generally very expressive and friendly, so in Greece the most common way to greet a good friend is to give a big warm hug and then kiss them once on each cheek. This is the custom for both men and women, and between men and women.
Making time for friends and family is an important part of Greek culture. So the other part of greeting a close friend is to ask if they would like to stop by your house or a local coffee shop (which can be found almost on every corner) to have a coffee together.
24. Ecuador
Wherever you meet men in public you always give a very hearty handshake, including church. If you are intimate or have a well established friendly relation, then you exchange an "abrazo" (hug) - where you each hug the other. That is man to man, not man to woman.

The younger generation (under 20) no longer shake hands (or hugs) unless initiated by the other person. They'll just say "hi" to each other”.
