My own meishi

Meishi
Originally uploaded by juanerubio.

'Meishi' is the japanese name for name cards, where all the contact information of a person is contained. These cards are very important in Japan, and virtually any relationship starts with a 'meishi' exchange.

The rules for this exchange are very important, for example, they have to be given and taken with both hands with your name facing the receptor, after receiving one, some comments on it are a must and, during the whole meeting, the card must be kept in a visible position.

Usually, japanese customs are very complex...
