Interesting People To Work With

What do people do to become an interesting person to be around/work with and well-rounded?

Things I can think of include:

  • run an interesting business/entrepreneurial venture
  • participate in a sport
  • travel abroad/live abroad/complete studies abroad
  • have worked somewhere interesting e.g. Disney, Google, a pub manager
  • learn a language
  • play a musical instrument
  • certified standup comedian? lol

Thanks!
