🇮🇩 A little Indonesian custom that’s worth noticing 🫶🏼 Have you ever noticed what happens after an Indonesian person shakes your hand? You might see them bring the same hand gently to their chest, a small gesture that carries a beautiful meaning. It’s often understood as a way of showing warmth, respect and sincerity, almost like saying, “It’s lovely to meet you, and I mean it from the heart.” ❤️ It’s one of those little cultural details you might miss if you’re not paying attention, but once you notice it, you start seeing it everywhere. Living in Indonesia has taught us that some of the most meaningful connections happen through the simplest gestures. And that’s one of the things I love about learning a new culture. It’s not just about the language, it’s about understanding the people and the little ways we show kindness to one another. 🌴 Have you noticed this gesture during your travels in Indonesia? 📱 Want to learn a little Bahasa Indonesia before your next trip? We’ve added a Language section to the FREE Bali Family Finds app, with useful words and phrases, playable audio and phonetic spelling to help you practise. Save this for your next Bali adventure! 🇮🇩❤️
