【Part2】Describe an interesting conversation you had with others2

The most interesting conversation I have had was with a foreigner name Victor, during my in last summer vacation.

At that time, I volunteered in an international academic conference held by my college. My job was to pick up foreign guests from the airport and accompany them to go to my school. Before the first day, I was quite worried because of my poor English skills, fearing that I can’t have smooth conversation with my guests and thus fail my task.

But maybe it’s my lucky day, my worries were gone after I met the first guest Victor. He was an old man who lookedexactly like an intellectual. His personality was opposite to his serious appearance. he was talkative and have a good sense of humour. The ice was soon broken when he told me that he was a big fan of Chinese culture and asked me about all the things he was interested in like a curious child. Although I was more than willing and tried 100 percent to cater to his curiosity, I couldn’t fully understand. Some funny jokes were made because of this. For example, when I introduced Jingan Temple, a famous bustling commercial district, he asked me in confusion why the temple was built within city and how the monks could concentrate on their meditations. Anyway the misunderstanding didn’t hurt our exchanges. Instead, we were rolling with laughter throughout the drive. We even lost the track of time until we got the destination.

This experience boosted my confidence in English language, and more importantly I learned my home country more through a foreigner’s perspective.
