What is hospitality culture?
Hospitality culture consists of social practices of receiving guests and showing mutual respect.
Origins, forms and everyday life
Greeting, refreshments, seating and visit length vary across groups and individuals. Hospitality is more than serving food; it creates time and connection. Host and guest boundaries differ by context.
Meaning, change and safeguarding
Clear communication helps when people have different languages or customs. Respect mutual consent rather than imposing unpaid labor on hosts or assuming what guests need.
