The dutch like people to say hello when you enter their shop, even if it's say a clothes shop and you're just having a look around if you dont they think you're being rude, the same when leaving they like you to say at the very least a goodbye, I always try and thank them and say goodbye, manners cost nothing.

This is very true throughout Europe IMHO.

Americans can be known as 'overly-friendly' but I continue my quest to be nice to the people I meet on a daily basis and it has served me well in my travels.
