Could a simple Toastmasters club visit turn into an adventure filled with cultural exchange, networking and serendipitous discoveries?
Join me in Episode 28, as I recount my recent holiday, that began with planned visits to the Malacca and Summit Toastmasters Clubs but unfolded into an unexpected immersion in the Malaysian District 102 conference - my second District conference in as many weeks!
I discuss the physical and online club experience, the similarities and differences between my experience with Australian clubs, and the wonderful welcome I received from my new Malaysian friends.
I move on to how my visit coincided with the District 102 annual conference, happening merely five minutes from my hotel. Imagine the excitement of engaging with passionate Toastmasters, witnessing high-stakes speech competitions and feeling the community spirit that transcends borders.
This episode highlights Toastmasters' global reach and its power to foster personal growth and meaningful connections, no matter where you find yourself. Tune in to hear the about unexpected adventures and lessons from my Malaysian Toastmasters journey!
