Our inaugural joint meeting with TBTC (Tokyo Bilingual Toastmasters Club) took place at an extraordinary venue in the heart of Roppongi, and it was nothing short of magical! Over 30 enthusiastic participants gathered, including remarkable guests from both clubs! The atmosphere was electrifying and overflowing with \u201cRapture\u201d!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was a compelling Japanese Icebreaker speech delivered by a non-Japanese veteran from TBTC, and let&#8217;s not forget the fiery Icebreaker from OMTC (Carlos)! Our table topic session was nothing short of riveting, followed by an evaluation session that sparked intense discussions. The meeting, though packed into just 90 minutes, was a whirlwind of intellectual stimulation, and we capped it all off with some exhilarating socializing at a bustling Chinese restaurant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Special thanks to everyone who poured their heart into organizing this event! (Taka, Frank, &amp; Stefano and so on) It cannot be achieved without your help! Let\u2019s look forward to creating more wonderful memories together in the near future!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0034-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-458\" srcset=\"http:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0034-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, http:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0034-300x225.jpeg 300w, http:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0034-768x576.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0034.jpeg 1477w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0033-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-457\" srcset=\"http:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0033-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, http:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0033-300x225.jpeg 300w, http:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0033-768x576.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_0033.jpeg 1477w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"23\" width=\"23\" src=\"https:\/\/otemachi.toastmastersclubs.org\/js\/ckeditor_smileys\/thumbs_up.png\" alt=\"yes\">The Best Speaker is Carlos!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"23\" width=\"23\" src=\"https:\/\/otemachi.toastmastersclubs.org\/js\/ckeditor_smileys\/thumbs_up.png\" alt=\"yes\">The Best Evaluator is Akiko!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"23\" width=\"23\" src=\"https:\/\/otemachi.toastmastersclubs.org\/js\/ckeditor_smileys\/thumbs_up.png\" alt=\"yes\">The Best table topic speaker is Dillon (Guest) !<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Congrats!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/2025_423-Joint-Meeting-Agend-of-TBTC-OTM_r03.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"2025_423 Joint Meeting Agend of TBTC-OTM_r03\u306e\u57cb\u3081\u8fbc\u307f\u3002\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-b54f21c2-b238-4cd9-aba1-bf40ee796354\" href=\"https:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/2025_423-Joint-Meeting-Agend-of-TBTC-OTM_r03.pdf\">2025_423 Joint Meeting Agend of TBTC-OTM_r03<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/otemachi.blog\/toastmasters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/2025_423-Joint-Meeting-Agend-of-TBTC-OTM_r03.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-b54f21c2-b238-4cd9-aba1-bf40ee796354\">\u30c0\u30a6\u30f3\u30ed\u30fc\u30c9<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We did it!
