do you talk to the stranger or foreigner voluntary ?

No,i don't get that feeling because i get the chance to help the foreigner when i was young.I know a liitle knowledge about english language and just can help them by show the location they want to go.I feel funny too because we like chicken and duck when try to talk each other but i feel happy too because i get the chance to help them.That's is my experience with a foreigner.Thank you and have a nice day.

Actually you had already bravely talked to them,you showed your friendship and welcomed them to take their holiday in your city.That's enough,too much talk may interrupt their talking and affect their feelings,except they talk with you voluntary.

Hi,its good to see discussion of people having the same ideas and thoughts and i though there was something wrong with me...hehe well i have been in situation like that many times.I always wanna talk to people especially foreign people,like wanting to know were they are from and so on.Last week i was sitted next to a foreign guy at the main bus station and he was kinda a looking at me like wanting to talk and i wanted to ask him something like were his from stuff like that.But didn't have the courage.Eventually he asked me in french what time the bus was coming and i replied...wanted to add more..make more conversation but i didn't.I always end up talking to total stranger and felt like i have known them since a lifetime.

I have experienced that in my life and I did not regret as you did not while talking to a stranger voluntarily. I found that wonderful when they are wondering where to get an information and I have all the news for them so instead of going to some offices I have given them all the requires inforamtions, they thank me and once like this a women had even end me a postal card when she returned to her country.

Hi Peace001, I usually interrupt a stranger if they are lost! Otherwise I never join their conversation. I must tell that you're quite brave and good hearted. You should have told them that you'd love to show them more place since they smiled at you! In future, you'kk do better, my wishes to you!

Once i met a Filipino asking for help after work, and i friendly told him how to his direction. and even helped him give a call to ask my friends how to the place he wanted,cause i didnt really know first. when meeting a foreigher, i feel i'm a host and he's a guest,i shall do my best to help him. Another time,that was 3years ago,when i just graduated from the university,as my major was not english. i felt so excited to meet foreigners to practise my oral english. i also even asked the foreigner to take a photograph with me.until now,it was kept by me,but dont know where is my foreign friend.hope can meet her some day. when i feel it's suitable time or they need help,i will go to chat with him,but not much until now. after all,u must let both feel naturally.

i find it pretty easy to talk to people so i dont mind talking with anyone. sometimes if we have something in common, like we are waiting and the doctors or are on an elevator, i will talk to them. i often comment about something that they are wearing that i like.

A stranger can be helpful and might even become a friend in the future. I like to be friendly towards foreign travelers in my home country. I want them to think the English people are friendly. I feel pleased to suggest sightseeing to an attraction they don't know about is nearby. I used to live in near Canterbury which is very popular with tourists. I suggested they saw Grey Friars Church because it is such a picturesque little spot by the river. When I am traveling overseas I really enjoy chatting to different nationalities. The conservations can be quite fascinating.

I am not a Xenophobia type of person and on my ambivert attitude in my daily life, too. I greet them if I noticed they are smiling at me with virtue. OK let me tell you what, every action there must be reaction - good action must be taken positively on reaction side by promoting politeness which normally carries its future networking value. Of course safety is to take first as a precaution. Next is behave.

i think in society it seems that talking to strangers is weird and not done so much because you can't tell who people really are these days, but like the mother and child i think it would be good if we all started talking to random people like that when sitting on the bus for example, just start by saying....sorry to interupt but i couldn't help overhearing your conversation

I think sometimes it will need to see the situation before I do so.Sometimes I would talk to the strangers or foreigner when I think it is safe and necessary to do so. If they were in my city too, I could atleast tell them a little brief history of my proud city and that could help them as well.

I don't have the courage to talk with the stranger expecially the foreigner voluntary even i am interesting to talk with them . But if they have problems and ask for help from me, i will try my best to help.

This is so funny because my husband is from England and sometimes it drives us nuts for people to jump in on our conversations just because of his accent. For the most part though people are polite and we don't mind. My mother in law is constantly being asked where she is from when she is over here. I think she lets it go to her head a little. I think as long as you are polite about it no one will mind. It is the rude people that just interupt or the women that want to flirt with my hubby just because of his accent that get on my nerves. Show some respect and all is good!

No, i don't talk to strangers or foreigners unless they talk to me first. making friends is also good but I usually choose the person whom I should make friends with, Just for security purposes.
