I was immediately intrigued by Burnt Toast's blog when I stumbled across it a couple of weeks ago. When I contacted him for an interview I was pleasantly surprised when he said yes! I learned he's been in love with fashion for quite a long time. His passion is what has made him so successful as a model, photographer and fashion blogger. Check out the interview below, Burnt Toast is definitely someone to keep your eyes on.

Łukasz Czajkowski, 19
Photography Student, Model, Fashion Blogger Torun, Poland How did you come up with the name Burnt Toast? Does it mean anything?
I hate this question, because I don`t have a special answer. I just wanted to make different and characteristic name and that`s why I`m Burnt Toast.
How long have you been interested in fashion? What sparked this interest for you?
All my life. When I was a child, my mother always asked me: "What should I wear?" and I helped her. What sparked this interest for me? My mother, I think. She wanted to be a designer and in my opinion she has a great taste of style. I was looking at her and I was learning. She is one of the best part of my life.
What made you start a Facebook page? What made you move to a blog?
When I started my Facebook page I was doing great as a photographer and also I was a model. I didn't have my own fashion blog. It was one year ago. I opened my fashion blog in August this year. I thought that it can be something great to me and I will show myself to the world in different ways. I did it and I'm very happy.
What are you currently doing now? (are you a student, stylist etc?) and what are your plans/goals for the future?
I`m student of photography. I'm not working, yet. I want to have my own fashion magazine. I hope I will take photos in future. But we will see, maybe I will be a soldier... just kidding.
Who takes your pictures for you, or do you take them yourself? What kind of camera do you/they use?
Sometimes my cousin (11-years old) and sometimes photographers. It depends where am I and what I`m doing. I have a Nikon d3000. Nothing special but I'm quite satisfied.
What was it like working with Catarina Magazine? What kind of collaboration did you do?
I made a video where I answered a few questions. It was on summer and I was on holiday. I made this video on the beach. It was great collaboration, we haven`t got any problems.
From the time you wake up, how would you describe your typical day?
I spend a lot time in my bed. I sleep 12 hours. When I wake up I take a shower. After this I drink coffee and I check news. You know - face book, e-mails and things.
I relax with music. Sometimes I spend all days in home but other days I take photos or I meet my friends. I also take photos on my fashion blog. In the evening I watch TV series like 'Gossip Girl', 'Homeland', 'Amercian Horror Story'. In the night, I write poems, I really do. Every day is a different day. I travel a lot. In one week I`m in three or four cities.
What would you say is the best advice you've ever been given?
Be yourself no matter what.
If you could go anywhere in the world (to visit or to live) where would it be and why?
I want to visit Paris. I was there but I was a child. I dream about a week in Paris with someone I love.
I also dream about living in New York. I think there`s different world ore maybe I just watched to much "Sex and the city".
Lastly, what can’t you live without?
Gossip Girl, cola zero, sex, music and my love.
