Obscene Gestures in Iran


Obscene Gestures in Iran

The thumbs up gesture is extremely rude in Iran, roughly equivalent to raising the middle finger in Western countries. Hitchhiking is rare in Iran, and the country has a good public transportation system. If you do hitchhike, do not use a thumbs up signal. Also, be aware that drivers will generally expect to be paid and, unless you are an expert haggler, hitchhiking will often be more expensive than taking a bus.
