In my country (Pakistan), hugging between men and hugging between women is extremely common. If n close friends are meeting, you will see Choose(n,2) hugs.

The lack of hugs was indeed the strangest part of my time in Canada. Why not show the love.

I live in Canada (Quebec) and I have to say that there are less hugs here even than in the anglophone areas. My friends know me as a hugger though and a lot have told me they look forward to my hugs.
