Get the right English small talk questions to ask for polite, friendly conversations with coworkers about their holidays or recent travel.

Recently, a student asked me: "Is it polite to ask how was someone’s holiday? Is it a superficial question? Is it okay to be curious about someone’s long weekend and ask about it?”

It certainly is. Holidays and travel are common topics of small talk conversation.

In this Confident English lesson, you’ll learn which questions open the conversation easily and allow you to enjoy small talk in English.

Plus, I share my top tips to feel confident starting and participating in small talk conversations.
