Put on a winter coat and go…

In Toronto, where the skyscrapers shine and skating rinks are the place to find a sweetheart, there is an apparition that even gives the CN Tower a complex: the half-Italian, half-Canadian Monika Mancini.

Monika is the kind of woman who immediately reminds you of warm summer evenings in Tuscany, even though she lives in wintery Toronto. She moves as if the city was built especially for her: Kensington Market becomes her catwalk, King Street her backstage, and on the waterfront of Lake Ontario even the bleak cold wind seems to stop for a moment.

Honestly, who wouldn’t take her on an ice skating date? Or do you prefer warmer places where her summer body comes into its own? Take a look and decide for yourself.
