Fun facts about me 

When you meet someone for the first time, you can feel awkward and nervous sometimes. And here, the best way to clear the air and take the conversation to a new level is by telling some fun facts about yourself. Although some points cannot seem so funny at first glance, they contain some interesting details that we can share during the first meeting.

It is very important to put yourself into the shoes of other people and consider their reactions, before actually sharing any weird or silly fact. Most of the time it is enough just to share your profession and where you are living now. The first things like that tell other people you are normal and not weird.

So, what are these fun facts that we can share about ourselves? Let's find out:

• Telling where you can go right now if you can: Travelling is one of the most preferred and spirited themes for conversations.

So, if you feel that the conversation does not work, share with your talker the place you would like to go.
