Opener - A couple of buddies and I are going to Europe for 15 days this Friday and were gonna be visiting 5 countries... Were going to London, Amsterdamn, Rome, Barcelona, and Paris. My buddy Eric keeps arguing that Barcelona is going to be the best since were there on Christmas. But come on, I think Amsterdam will be the best. They have the best nightlife and its the biggest party in the world! What do you guys think?
U: A couple of really great friends and I are going to Europe this Friday and we are gonna be visiting 5 countries...
U: Have any of you been to Europe before?
It should be asked with a question expression. If they have, great talking point. You can also listen to them and start multi-thread the conversation. Between your destinations and where they have been before.
If no one has been to Europe, then lead in with the second half.
U:No one has?
U: We are going to be going to London, Amsterdam, Rome, Barcelona, and Paris.
U: All of them are (Awsome, Fantastic, Full of adventure-The word I use here would be more of an audience choice) places but my friend Erics says that Barcelona is going to be the best since were there on Christmas.
U: I think Amsterdam will be the best. They have the best nightlife and its the biggest party in the world!
U: Heard of those places?
If answer is no, talk about how you correlate to any of those places or things you want to do there.
