    What's the etiquette when greeting foreign women in a country where...

    ...kisses are customary? Should I shake everyone's hands, male and female. Should I give the two kisses to all the Spanish women and offer a handshake to the English women or do I have to figure it out for each and every woman that is there depending on how she happens to be feeling that day?
