Hi there,

Curious> interested in learning about people or things around you. 
Example> I`m curious to see how Europe is going to handle the Brexit.

Inquisitive> wanting to discover and eager to know a lot about people and things, often in a way that annoys people. 
Example>Yesterday I ran into an inquisitive stranger on the train who wouldn`t stop asking me questions about my personal life.

I hope this helps.
