Wojciech Jabłoński
I’m Wojciech and I’m 17 years old. I’m an acolyte in my parish. What is more, I do love all sports, nevertheless my favourite one is football. I like volleyball, floorball and rollerblading too. I am a really imaginative person and my hobby is making DIY things, especially from paper, and cooking. Reading books is so absorbing for me. As far as I’m concerned, being kind to people is the most precious thing in our life and we should share it in every single way. I am familiar with making films as I took part in Booktrailer Film Festival in 2022. Moreover, when I was younger I used to make videos on YouTube. Last year I took part in the English poetry elocutionary competition in which I declaimed poems of Edgar Allan Poe “A dream within a Dream” and Elizabeth Bishop’s “One art”.
