12 LESSONS LEARNED IN 2021 SEPTEMBER: talk to strangers Hi, I'm Anna, and I like to talk to strangers. I have had some fascinating encounters and interactions. Sometimes it touches only the surface, sometimes it goes deeper - but in any case it leaves a trace of satisfaction. A little outtake: "I just googled it: talk to strangers. In no time, I was in a chat room where strangers chat to each other online. 2 seconds in, the question "any naughty girls in here?" shows up.Oh well, I stopped the research because I couldn't be further away from the place I wanted to talk about. Where you can see each other. Where you can smell the other person. Observe mimics and gestures. I mean trains, coffee places, cash desks, waiting rooms, hospitals, outside on a promenade or standing in a queue somewhere. The last time I had a chat with a stranger was a few days ago in a locker room after swimming. But before I take you there, let's go back to the end of last summer: We had a team golf tournament in the french part of Switzerland. We are six players. One of my best friends is one of them. After playing, the two of us took the chance to go and have a drink. Now she will tell you that what happened that day happens to me all the time: a stranger will appear out of nowhere, and we will have the most interesting conversations about life, love, death, society, art and of course, about TIME. We will arrive at a point where our heads spin because they have been fed with new ideas and perspectives, and then the stranger will say something like: "I think it's time to digest this conversation." And they will be gone - plop, and maybe one day I will get a letter or a message saying: I am not sure if you remember me, but in the year 2021, we met in Yverdon, and we talked about time and HUMANS - as he called his topic. And I will be reading this and thinking: how could I forget?" I encourage you to go and listen to the whole episode to get a "how to talk to strangers" tip.It takes 10 minutes to listen.

SEPTEMBER: talk to strangers

Hi, I’m Anna, and I like to talk to strangers. I have had some fascinating encounters and interactions. Sometimes it touches only the surface, sometimes it goes deeper – but in any case it leaves a trace of satisfaction. A little outtake: “I just googled it: talk to strangers. In no time, I was in a chat room where strangers chat to each other online. 2 seconds in, the question “any naughty girls in here?” shows up.Oh well, I stopped the research because I couldn’t be further away from the place I wanted to talk about. Where you can see each other. Where you can smell the other person. Observe mimics and gestures.
