Nice trip. There are volumes to be written about the language to say hello in when walking. In Aosta I generally use ciao but it is obvious I am not Italian so people often reply in French. For a while I thought this meant using your own language was best so I tried hi. But then people thought I was American so I stopped. In the UK the phrase varies by rehion too. You might get "ow do" in Yorkshire.
I got a "ni hao" on Mt. Rigi today from a group of Chinese tourists.
Around here it's "Grüezi". If you move about 2 miles west it's "Grüessech" and then it changes to "Grüezi" again in Aarburg. That's how you know which canton you're in 😉
