Europe is not one conversation culture
Communication styles, languages and everyday experiences vary widely between countries and regions. Ask rather than assume how someone prefers to communicate.
Use cross-cultural topics carefully
Travel, food, music, sport and language are accessible starting points. When politics, identity or history comes up, listen to how the other person describes their own perspective.
Connect location and language
European conversations often cross language boundaries. Use the Languages hub and Language Exchange when language practice is part of the conversation.
