To enhance my conversations at language exchange meet-ups, I want to prepare questions.
1. When you hear the word "Japan", what do you think of?
2. What do you think is interesting about Japan after you came to Japan?
3. What's a thing you think it's inconvenient or annoying in Japan?
Did you order what you want to eat smoothly at a restaurant?
4. My friends travel to other countries because they like to visit world heritages and do museum-hopping.
What's your main purpose of overseas trips?
My main purpose is eating local dishes at food stalls on the streets. They're not customized in taste for tourists unlike the restaurants introduced on the guidebooks.
I want to enjoy the real local dishes in other countries. The second purpose is watching fairy-tale-like buildings.
5. Have you ever had an embarrassing experience in other countries?
I've been to London. While I was waiting for the traffic signal to turn to green, I god a lot of bird's droppings on my head and my right shoulder and my bag. There were many people on the other side to wait for the traffic signal. Some of them noticed me and laughed. My mind went brank and I froze there. I was so embarrassed that I ran away almost in tears for a back alley.
6. Do you have any failure story in other countries?
When I went in a Subway, a sandwich chain shop, I ordered like I do in Japan, then I got a whole baguette sandwich. I was shocked. In Japan we can get a half baguette sandwich without saying anything. Even a drink, the cup size is much bigger than that of Japan. How could I possibly eat? I tore the bread into two and ate one there and put the other in my bag after wrapped it with some pieces of paper napkin. I was almost in tears.

Question Part 1
To enhance my conversations at language exchange meet-ups, I want to prepare questions.
1. When you hear the word "Japan", what do you think of?
2. What do you think is interesting about Japan after you came to Japan?
Sounds a little weird but it's not wrong. I would say "What do you think is interesting about Japan after you went there?" Or "What do you find interesting about Japan after you came?" No big deal but I would omit the second "Japan" at the end of the sentence.
3. What's a something that you think it's inconvenient or annoying in Japan?
It sounds a little off to me when you say "What's a thing you think..." You could also say "What's something you find inconvenient". In fact, I would recommend you say that instead.
Did you order what you want to eat smoothly at a restaurant?
4. My friends travel to other countries because they like to visit world heritage sites and do museum-hopping.
Making "Heritage" a plural sounds weird. I would say "sites" but that's just me :)
What's your main purpose of overseas trips?
My main purpose is eating local dishes at food stalls on the streets.
They're not customized in taste for tourists unlike the restaurants introduced on the guidebooks.
I want to enjoy the real local dishes in other countries.
The second purpose is watching fairy-tale-like buildings.
5. Have you ever had an embarrassing experience in other countries?
I've been to London.
While I was waiting for the traffic signal to turn to green, I godt a lot of bird's droppings on my head and, my right shoulder and my bag.
Unlucky hahaha.
There were many people on the other side to waiting for the traffic signal.
Made this more concise.
Some of them noticed me and laughed.
My mind went brlank and I froze there.
Blank, as in empty.
I was so embarrassed that I ran away, almost in tears, for a back alley.
Makes sense but I would say "I was so embarrassed I ran to a back alley in tears". It's fine though. You could say this in a lot of ways.
6. Do you have any failure storyies in other countries?
When I went in ato Subway, a sandwich chain shop, I ordered like I do in Japan, but then I got a whole baguette sandwich.
I find it more common to refer to fast food restaurants like this: "When I went into Subway" and not "a Subway". It still makes sense though.
I was shocked.
In Japan we can get a half baguette sandwich without saying anything.
Even athe drink, the cup size is much bigger than that of Japan.
How could I possibly eat this?
You could also say "How could I possibly eat all of this?"
I tore the bread into two and ate one half there and. I put the other half in my bag after wrapped it with some pieces of paper napkin.
This sentence is a little long-winded, but not that bad. I'll provide how I would write it: "I tore the bread in two and ate one half there. I put the other in my bag...."
I was almost in tears.
Questions Part 1
To enhance my conversations at language exchange meet-ups, I want to prepare questions.
1. When you hear the word "Japan", what do you think of?

You are assuming/already know that they went to Japan with this sentence. If you do not wish to do so, try
What do you think is interesting about Japan?
or
If you went to Japan before, what do you think is interesting about Japan?
3. What's a thing you think it's inconvenient or annoying in Japan?

My mind went brlank and I just froze there.
I was so embarrassed that I ran away, almost in tears for, into a back alley.
6. Do you have any stories of failure story in other countries?
(This question is kind of similar to 5)
When I went in a Subway, a sandwich chain shop, I ordered like I do in Japan, thenusually did in Japan, and to my surprise, I got a whole baguette sandwich.
I was shocked.
In Japan, we canwould get a half of the baguette sandwich withouif we do not saying anything.
Even a drink, the cup size of a drink is much bigger than that of Japan.
How could I possibly eat this much?
I tore the bread into two and ate one there and put, putting the other into my bag after wrappeding it with some pieces of paper napkins.
I was almost in tears.
Elaborate why, it's not very clear here
Example:
I was almost in tears because of how much food they gave me.
I was almost in tears because I couldn't finish this much food.
