Andrea Rodriguez and Daniel Oliveira traveled for the first time in a quadruple plane. The couple spent New Year’s Eve in Cape Verde with their two daughters, Alice and Ines.

Alice asked a lot and we really wanted to travel with them. We didn’t know what it would be like, but we took a chance… After all, we wouldn’t be the first or the last… Instagram new photos of this ‘getaway’.

Now back to the routine, Andrea Rodriguez confirmed that this was an “absolutely amazing” experience.

“During these days, the truth is, we didn’t stop — come on, I stopped for 5 minutes sitting in a chair or on a towel — it was busy days, we tried to relax (because I’m so boring” with routines, bedtime, eating, naps, etc. That) and I think we’ve struck a good balance, and there’s nothing more satisfying than their smiles and their laughter and their lingering memories,” he said.

And although the scales are positive, “there were tantrums, too.” Andrea was keen to stress that “there are no perfect families” and that hers is, in fact, “a real family that is perfect in its imperfection”.
