After a hard season, Vinicius chose to spend his first summer break as a Real Madrid player back home in Rio de Janeiro. These days he’s been at the beach with his family and friends.

The beach near his house is called Barra da Tijuca. He likes to play the sand game “altinha,” which is like rondo but with the goal of not dropping the ball. A few days ago, he also found time to see Ronaldinho, who lives next door to him.

The young football player likes having a full house. He lives in Madrid with his family and staff, but he misses his hometown and his friends from the Flamengo junior school.
