- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The ideal time for calls is 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Peruvians value personal trust and long-term relationships. Traffic in Lima is notoriously bad, so virtual meetings are often preferred. Business is professional but includes a warm, personal element.
Melbourne Business Pulse
- Culture Professional but relaxed. Known for a strong coffee culture and sports-related networking.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip The best time for calls is 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Australians are generally informal but professional; starting with "How's it going?" is standard. Melbourne is the coffee capital; if you're on a video call, don't be surprised if your contact is in a café.
