A more interesting person does not necessarily mean a more educated person, or it does not necessarily mean a person with a lot of experience. On the contrary, you may find that those with more experience and more education tend to lose the quality of being “interesting”.
Interesting is an interesting word. It could refer to someone who is able to catch and hold the attention, who is able to arouse a feeling of fascinating, who can share an opinion that is different or inspiring or funny (a perspective that you have not thought about before). Generally speaking, it is unlikely that you will find a person who conform with the majority interesting. Therefore, an interesting person is one who does not conform.
If you would like to be a more interesting person — the typical advice of travelling more, learning a new language, taking a class to learn something new, talking to more people, would not help. These are conforming ideas and actions.
A person who can speak 6 languages does not necessarily mean that he or she would be interesting, until that person can use that language skill to do something that is not done before, or to share a secret in quickly learning languages. That would be something that could arouse curiosity and make others to feel that this is an interesting person. Why, because the way that person makes use of the languages is non-conforming.
A person who travel more to the most visited tourist spots around the world would not be found interesting — he or she would be just another person travelling and there is nothing special about that. Rather, a person who photos with the same yoga posts at different countries during a trip around the world would be considered interesting. Why? Because the latter person does not conform.
Any activities or actions have the potential to make you an interesting person — it is not about what you do, but what you do with it.
