Being an extrovert and a talker, I make friends wherever I travel. Plus, while filming a travel TV show, lots of people come up to me and say hello!
New to USA Girl Seeking Female Friends wrote to me a while back, asking for tips how to make friends in the United States. This blog post is one of the most read posts on my website! So, you’re not the only one wanting to know how to make friends when traveling – or when you have moved to a new country!
Here are some tips to help you make friends when traveling:
Always start up a short conversation with someone you are standing or sitting next to.
Ask them a question or compliment them on something they are wearing.
Look up and alert, like you would welcome someone to talk to you.
Sit near people that are having a good time. Join in their fun!
Attend events that have a lot of people, which makes it easier to talk to someone.
Travel with a group of people for instant friends with common interests.
