Jenny made a good point
Good point about conversation starters. People sometimes just want to talk. They themselves might be from somewhere else or their parents, so here is your conversation.

People are very chatty where I live and so am I. But I understand that if person is a bit shy then engaging in conversations with strangers is a struggle. It is not that easy for everyone.

Maybe make a plan of having one conversation with a stranger a day. Have a journal where you can record it. Say today you are going grocery shopping so you'll ask another customer in line about something in their shopping cart ( like if you wonder if that's a good item and you were thinking of buying it).

Tomorrow you'll ask a neighbor if they like their new car because you think you want the same kind? And so on. Start with small manageable goal
