In Bulgaria, one nods one's head for "no" and shakes it back and forth for "yes". If you make the ok sign in Brazil, with the index finger and thumb making a circle. It is not only not okay, it's very impolite. To show the bottom of one's feet to a Turk is a serious insult, implying that "you are lower than the ground I walk on." Throughout the Middle East, to offer the left hand in a handshake or to wave it at someone will offense him or her deeply. Frenchman wants to make a strong point, he waves his upraised index finger from side to side. In many Mediterranean cultures, men who are nonromantic friends walk hand in hand. And in America, a firm handshake and a direct look in the eye are expected when men meet one another. In many cultures, this would be considered very rude. Clearly, The meaning of body language may be different in another.
