Ich übe grad, wie man Gespräche führt oder wie man den Einstieg schafft. Ein paar gute Einstiege sind…

1. Event-related

1. How do you know the host?
2. Do you like gatherings like this? Are you more of an extrovert or introvert?
3. Compliment the person on their outfit and ask where they got it. Ask where they shop and what they would recommend.

2. Seasonal

1. What did you do this summer? How was your summer? Did you travel at all? If so, where?
2. Any plans for the holidays? Are you ready for the change in seasons?

3. Work and life

1. What do you like best about your job? How did you get into this business?
2. Do you live nearby? How long have you lived there? What do you like about it?

4. Entertainment and pastimes

1. I’m looking for a new book. Any books you’ve read recently that you’d recommend?
2. Have you listened to any good podcasts recently? What did you like about them? Would you recommend any of them? Why?
3. What are you watching on Netflix? Any good shows you’d recommend?
4. Who or what inspires your art?
5. I am thinking about taking a trip. What is your favorite travel destination?
