You know how I remember it? Go to the left so your right cheeks brush, the opposite of what we do when driving in the US. Rarely did they ever switch it up, unless you were my host dad who would grab my cheeks and just kiss on each side over and over... nasty wet kisses. haha
oh man, les bisous! the lebanese have a bisous hierarchy: 1 for acquaintance, 2 for friends, 3 for family and close friends. so you have the which-side-first awkwardness AND the number awkwardness---what if they pull back after two when i'm going in for a third or vice versa?! ouch.
