258. Little Snippet #13 Airport Eavesdropping Part 1

3 min • 25 december 2024

Do you find it awkward to make conversation in English when you meet new people? You are certainly not alone. A lot of my clients find this simple, but often intimidating, interaction hard. In this Little Snippet I share 3 natural phrases I heard when I eavesdropped a conversation with native speakers at the airport. I hope you can use them the next time you meet new people at a networking or conference event in 2025.
