It is a very long journey from Fehervar all the way to Brazil. The trip there will includes two car journey's and three different planes. Door to door will be a lengthy 18 hours! That does not include the times in between the flights, waiting at the airports. The Brazilian forward, who ended the autumn season as the leading goal scorer in Hungary, has no problem with the journey back home to Brazil. However, the journey back to Hungary is always the worse route. Both his wife and daughter travelled home at the end of October, so Andre will soon be reunited with the pair. "I am really looking forward to being with them." said the striker before his journey home. "My daughter Jasmin, recently turned one years old, and I am sure that she has grown a lot recently, in the time that I have not seen her. I will not be going home empty handed, but I will put the presents away until Christmas."

The festive season is fast approaching, and although Brazil is currently enjoying, 30c summer, they still remember and celebrate the birth of Jesus. "Naturally we also have a Christmas tree, and I usually buy one that is 1,80cm in height. There will be plenty of room beneath for the presents, just like it is custom in other countries. Ingrid and I have already bought the surprise present, which is a Barby house, as this is what my daughter really wants. I have not yet focused on presents for the other family members. We celebrate December 25th, and the family come together on that day, which means many people. The weather is perfect at the moment, so we have a BBQ party as dinner. There is always plenty of food on the table, like Chicken, rice, various pastas, grapes, water melon and peach." The forward is also looking forward to the break. "Football for me during the break will be a kick around with my friends. I will be relaxing a lot and spending time with the relatives.  I will also meet up with all my friends over the month, that I will spend at home."
