When do I use "know" and "meet" if i find a person for the first time.
I went to Paris and Londres this year
When I came back I was talking to my teacher and i wanted to say:
I loved those countries, I MET/KNOW people from around the world...
Which one do I use?
Please, give me more exemples.

When you see someone for the first time, then you have "met" them, so you should say: "I met people from around the world."
"Know" means, when talking about a person, that you are familiar with someone or that you have some knowledge about who they are, which is something you would not know at all upon the first meeting. So you can't say "know" in this case.
