Pick up smoking
Yeah, yeah we know it's bad for you. We don't need to hear the D.A.R.E. speeches that we heard in middle school, we totally get it. Smoking cigs in America is no longer chic, it's just rather...grotesque. But abroad it's a totally different story. Smoking the cancer stick makes you look like you're edgy, broody, and super deep - think of it as going from Kate Upton to Kate Moss with the strike of a match. Ask a tall, dark, handsome stranger for a light, and it's the perfect spark for a conversation.
