Photos are Conversation Generators

Here's an easy tip to help generate conversation.

If you're reading this in isolation (or even long after), photos are a great way to stimulate conversation with your family, partner or housemates.

Simply looking at old photos is a great prompt to discuss old memories.

You can pull out old photo albums (physical or digital), or even simply look through your old photos on Facebook or Instagram.

We often snap photos as a memento of a fun or interesting memory. It's always great to relive a happy memory and tell the story again.

Even if the person you are around was with you when you made the memory, they will enjoy reliving it too.

“Once you start walking down memory lane you can be there for hours.”

We live in an era of digital photos and camera phones, so we take more photos than ever. The biggest shame is that we don't often look back at those photos.

While you are in isolation, it's the perfect opportunity to do so.

If you have particularly interesting photos, print them off and hang them up in your house. When you have visitors next, they are likely to ask the story behind it.

Photos albums are like rabbit holes. Once you start walking down memory lane you can be there for hours reliving the stories that spring out from them.
