Kamila is toastmaster at the Nobel Prize banquet

“When I moved to Sweden from Poland as a 16-year-old, I could never have imagined that, one day, I would be holding a speech in that room. In fluent Swedish. I believe in doing your best in life and taking every chance that comes along.” Kamila Marzynska, a law student at Stockholm University, smiles happily as she reflects on her role as toastmaster at the Nobel Prize banquet. For the third year in a row, she will be welcoming guests to dinner at the City Hall, leading the toast to the Chairman of the Nobel Foundation and the Swedish King. Once the main course has been enjoyed and it's time for dessert, she gets back up on the podium. At that point, the Nobel Laureates giving speeches will be introduced – in Swedish, in their mother tongue and in English. It's a big moment in their lives, so I want to introduce them in a supportive way.
