Hey, so I have to add. There is usually something interesting about most people you meet. It might not even be on your radar as a thing that's cool or to look out for, but I don't think classifying people as interesting or not interesting works (not sure if that's your intent tho). E.g someone I know who followed a very classic path showed me how to execute with relentless intensity (which can be translated elsewhere). Another mechanical engineer I know was refreshing to be with because he was very grounded as a result of his religious practices but still had a modern attitude.
