I have a niece, Arita, and a nephew, Gonçalo. They're adults now. I don't see them often, but when they were kids, I used to play and go to the park with them.

Unfortunately, I don't have any nephews or nieces. But I do have cousins. We occasionally see each other.

When we get together, we just talk and relax.
