Rules of hospitality
Hospitality is the quality of receiving and treating guests in
a warm, friendly and generous way. Each culture treats visitors
and guests with distinct differences from every other culture.
Turkmen culture is also considered as one of the most
hospitable cultures in the world. Our nation has centuries-old
traditions related to receiving guests which we inherited from our
ancestors and keep alive till these days. We have lots of events and
celebrations when we invite guests and offer warm hospitality to
our friends and relatives. Not only friends and relatives, but we
treat strangers or foreigners kindly as well. It is a way of our life.
When guests arrive, the host or hostess, who receive them
should
greet them pleasantly;
offer them food and drink;
treat guests kindly;
make them feel at home;
show them how glad to have them in their home;
thanks for coming and tell them that they are always welcome.
Rules of hospitality are simple. But they can make people
feel welcome and at home. Warm hospitality can make people feel
special. People will forget what you said, people will forget what
you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
Guest, you are Welcome
