From my point of view talking about weather is the best way to break the ice. Last week I made a new friend her name is Kasenia and she is from Russia and as you might guess I talked about wheather to break the ice and initiate our conversation.
Bruno: Hello ksenia, nice to meet you.
Ksenia: Hello Bruno nice to meet you too.
Bruno: So ksenia where are you from?
Ksenia: I am from Russia, and you?
Bruno: I am from from Brazil, I am Brazilian.
Ksenia: Cool I love Brazil.
Bruno: It is great to know that, and how is the weather in Russia?
Ksenia: It is a little bit cold today, how about the weather in Brazil?
Bruno: It is sky is overcast to day and the weather is chilly, it is 16 degrees Celsius here.
Ksenia: Really, it is not cold at all in Russia it is -4 right now. hahah
Bruno: My goodness it might be frezzing there, isn't it?
Ksenia: Not at all it used to be -25 sometimes.
Bruno: How interisting, I think my city never got below freezing. Can you believe I never saw snow?
Ksenia: I can not believe how is that possible hahaha. On the other hand I never went to the beach.
Bruno: I cant believe hahaha go to the beach quite often, by the way I am going to Ipanema this weekend.
Ksenia: Please take me with you....
... Well as you could see talking about weather is a good and sometimes an funny way to break the weather with someone else.

Thank you so much Tara Benwell for the advice, I am looking forward to joining you on new writing challenges.
Fantastic! I love your example of small talk. Great dialogue!
Note: In English, you don't need to mention the sky when you use the word "overcast".
It is overcast today and the weather is chilly. It is 16 degrees Celsius here.
All right, I know many countries interesting in weather topic, especially, England country. I remember, I meet a British, he felt very exciting when we talked about the weather, then the conversation became more comfortable and happy.
