My co-teachers and I have never bowed to each other. They always do a standard wave and "good morning!" I don't bow to about half of the people at my school, since they usually initiate with western-style greetings. I only bow to the older women, the people in the administration, and the old men. |

I overbowed when I first got here. I was bowing when I took a vacation to other countries.
Now I don't bow. i've been clean many years. It hasn't been easy. |

Speaking of, I'm going on vacation to Paris in a week. I'm absolutely terrified I'm going to respond to French in Korean on autopilot.  |
