Content: Here are 13 things that are totally normal in the U.S. but are considered rude in other countries. 13 Tipping
In the U.S. all kinds of professions rely on tips to offset minimum wages. This is just not the case everywhere in the world. In fact, if you try to tip someone in Japan or Korea, they might be seriously insulted. In those cultures, people really take pride in their jobs and working hard for the money that they are given, so they don't need any extra incentives to do things right the first time. If you're traveling in Japan, however, be ready to add on a tip, since most areas with a high amount of tourism have embraced tipping. 12 Whistling
You probably don't think much about whistling at all, and you certainly don't consider it rude unless someone is doing it in your face or really disruptively. However, in Haiti, whistling can be taken the wrong way, especially if you are a child who is supposed to be sitting quietly amongst your elders. Whistling is considered an affront similar to making direct eye contact with the elders, standing with your hands on your hips which can be seen as aggressive, or sitting in a cross-legged position. 11 Laughing With Your Mouth Open
In America, we love a toothy laugh showing off those pearly whites.
