About

Luis lives with his mother, an older sister and two younger siblings. They live in a house with two rooms, a kitchen and bathroom. Their only income is his mother's irregular, low income. Luis is very keen on science and in his spare time likes to learn more about about it. At the moment, he is undecided whether a career as a doctor or as a mechanic attracts him most.

Hello. My school is close to my house. I like sports, playing and watching, although my school has a bad sound system so it's difficult to hear what's going on. My class is large, and I have good friends.

Hello, I'm Luis. I like most lessons at school but my favorite subject is science. Playing the guitar is fun too because I love music. I hope I can keep on studying science and one day become a great scientist!
