Nothing to say? talk about weather
I have a saying if you meet someone and don't know what to talk about. No problem. Just talk about weather. Everyone has a saying about weather. Either good or bad. They preference and the stories of the seasons.
For me I still tell about the time I experience the harsh winter of Riyadh. And how I will never going back to Riyadh in winter. Although I always claimed that winter is my favorite season. But after that trip to Riyadh in winter. My preference changed After I experience a true winter. So autumn became my favorite. Although here where I live. There no seasons. Either is too hot or too cold.
