Ask what their latest most wanted gadgets are at the moment and compare them to what gadget is hot in the US. Talk about what you yourself find fascinating in the US and /'or weird, and see if they agree. Talk about dating trends, fashion trends, automobiles, dining/food, tv shows that are popular, movies that are popular.
