philosophy, reality, psychology, quantum physics, sociology, spirituality, evolution, dreams, life, death and existence to name a few common topics. (and how we watch our perception like a movie)
if you ask yourself 'why?' and follow the chain that ensues you will see the core of it all.
you'll be no-doubt forced to think through everything that is going on in your life as well. and all of the philosophy, psychology etc will become associated with your own life. therein giving you a pronounced understanding of the topics and of your self.
you will observe happening as a sequence rather than as a series of frames, and you can see your perception form and how it is being updated every second.
ask them if they will teach you....
but if you ask them if you 'can understand'(generally, as in i want to understand, implying a total understanding) you're going to be initiating a process of self-discovery and shamanic insight which can be overwhelming at times, though is quite rewarding.
if you really start philosophizing intensely you'll never be lacking intense conversation potential.
best of luck on your travels
