One occasion when I had a conversation with a stranger it was when I was traveling home by subway. I recognized a middle aged man who was talking on the phone in French and I immediately realized that he was from France and after he finished his call I politely approached him and asked for his name. I was curious to learn more about him and we started talking and quickly got into a deep conversation. I asked him about his impression about my country. I asked if he tried our Uzbek cuisine or not and I asked about his opinion. He told me that he really loved our cuisine. It was unique and delicious. It was his first month visiting Uzbekistan and it seemed that he was genuinely interested in our country. He was ready to explore more places to visit new places to try new things in Uzbekistan. After that I asked him more about his own country, about France. It has always been my dream of mine to visit France and he told me that it is a fashionable country with a lively atmosphere. He told me that France can be both exciting and quick paced. He invited me to visit his country. Overall after this conversation I was full of motivation to travel in the future. Even though we were strangers our conversation was meaningful and unforgettable.
