February is time:

- TO EXPERIMENT;

- TO ENJOY the Carnival in Rio. But if Brazil is too far for you, Carnival in Cologne/Germany is also fun;

- TO WATCH “A Single Man” in the cinema (February 12). It’s the first movie of designer-turned-into-director Tom Ford. We cannot wait any longer to watch it;

- TO DEVELOP a strategy for what to buy for the next season. Prioritize carefully: what you have to buy now and what can wait until things are much cheaper on next sales;

- TO VISIT the retrospective exhibition of the photographer Irving Penn at National Portrait Gallery in London (February 18). Irving died last year at the age of 90 years leaving an incredible legacy to the history of photography;

- TO DRINK a new type of tea while you wait for spring to come. But in case you’re in the Southern Hemisphere it’s time to enjoy a bit more the sun.  Summer is a season that always leaves unforgettable moments;

- TO READ a short book while taking the subway instead of getting stressed in traffic jams while your car is polluting the atmosphere;

- TO DOWNLOAD a good podcast of stand-up comedy;

- TO GO fast since February is the shortest month of the year…
