[@plinnyphoenix4208]

I'm so happy to live in Dublin. Here most of the locals look at you and say hi when they meet you on the street. It is like the small town I come from in Sardinia (Italy)

[@Lorenna1234]

But you`re a beautiful young girl. If I, as a guy, would ask a girl "would you be my stranger of the day?" I would either get arrested, slapped by her or punched by her boyfriend.

[@lili2tango]

hah! no! Well first dont say for theday right; she say few minutes! haha good try! haha! And then it depends how you approach someone, and where and who! right?! Yeaaah! also i guess if you look that someone that was prepared to meet this nice person your talking too (kina clean right; also maybe a little dressed up, not too much, but anough so we feel your are not wishing to begg 25 cents) hii

[@brownhairedgirl23]

“For the day” being the key words here 😂😂

[@seisoconsultancy]

I talk to strangers easily and most of them appreciate. It is true you learn something always.

[@navdeepsinghchouhan9437]

[@taran.151]

childhood bravado amirite? naive, unearned and brilliant in its innocence

[@generationcode5314]

That moved me so much.

[@aleezafatma4754]

This is amazing...we all need to be connected

[@musicforever9098]

Great presentation! I wish I could do something like this but my lack of social skills is holding me back :(

[@CimorelliPERFECT]

Same :(

[@MrMiniTako]

don't let your awful skills define you dude!

[@lili2tango]

I know what you mean! Easy to feel shy! But with some preparation i guess, everything is possible! And its simple at the end! Just you need to be foccus on doing it right! Would wish to try too...

[@chandu007i]

That attitude is holding you back

[@taran.151]

everyones a lil awkward dw, some more than others (guilty!), you'll get better with experience trusttt

[@jasonrobertsASTONISHES]

Insightful and important!

[@steveprimeau1407]

Unfortunately - the sad truth is - approaching strangers for the purpose of conversation, is socially unacceptable or awkward at best - especially in my case when they see a middle aged man with zero financial status poorly dressed and dependant on public transportation... Trust me, people do not respond in a manner that would be conducive to meaningful conversation when someone with an unfavorable appearance walks up to them. As a society, we are extremely judgemental, and through our prejudice we form a preconceived idea of a stranger's intentions based on their appearance when approached. As well meaning and heartfelt as this young lady's message may be - for someone in my situation, I do not reccomend it - not only will you face possible rejection, you may also find yourself in a potentially volatile situation. When I'm out in public, I keep my eyes to the ground, and I mind my own business. Believe me, it's much safer that way.

[@danielmonteiro5876]

Hi Steve Primeau You are partly right But still, if you keep trying, it will change your perspective a lot

[@vamshiabhilash]

[@Filiolus]

beautiful

[@lili2tango]

Thanks Aliya! Even after studying pshychologie & human geographie it's still some questions unsolved! I'm also working on that! From Quebec it"s a little easyer as it's a smaller French speaking community (easier to trace plps), and we are not as much from a background where peoples moved from there country (usualy filled with some trauma, lets face it). But partly still the individualism is still so strong that i am usualy putting all but all my energy on living abroad! I know most country are kinda loosing that "exchanging" habits, even villages. But there is still a lot better places, and effort that are more consistant in many places abroad! Thanks again!

[@daptomycinabd541]

Bravo!

[@leanh15]

I'm a highschool student and it seems that she has just visit my school and had some lessons with us, but i'm not sure about it. If anyone has her insta or facebook, please give me, thanks you = )) P/s: I really love her talks and want to share this talk to my friends. I think it would be a great fun if there is any coincidence here = ))
