Truly International

Over the course of the Toastmasters International Conference, I met people from all over the world. In fact, I met more people from other places in those three days than I have met in my whole life! After a few days, I realized that I would never remember all the cities and countries people were from, so I bought a tablet for people to sign. The only thing I could find was a ruled writing tablet, which was not very fun. Next year, I am going to buy a bound diary or journal, or maybe an atlas so that people can sign by their state or country! But here are a few that I remember or that people wrote for me:

Sagamiono, Japan
Kingston, Jamaica
Limerick, Ireland
South Africa
Sri Lanka
Ghana
Scotland
Ireland
England
Australia
Phillipines
New Zealand
New York
Greece
Japan
New Mexico
Arizona
Oklahoma
Texas
Colorado
California
Nevada
Washington DC
Maryland
Virginia
South Carolina
Illinois
Missouri
Oregon

And there were many more! Toastmasters are really easy to meet and start talking to because we are all learning and practicing communication all the time.
