## Survivor

### *Greece*

On *Canadian Survivor: Greece*, Luis was a member of the Hephaestus tribe, consisting of 9 **Contenders**.

Day 2, has a minor disagreement with Nadia. Day 5, joins **Hephaestus Four** with Jenny, Isaac and Nadia. At Tribal Council, despite wanting to vote out Ivan, Nadia targets Jeff for the big fight they had and with the majority, Jeff is sent home. Day 7, finds something in common with Kim and joins **Hephaestus Trio** with Kim and Daniel. At Tribal Council, Buffy awards Luis with Individual Immunity.

Day 11, leaves Hephaestus Four and joins Zeus' Angels with Adriana, Nam, Neelam and Su-Ling. Day 14, bonds strongly with Adriana and finds something in common with Su-Ling. Heading into Tribal Council, Luis votes along side his long time ally, Daniel, and Neelam goes back on her Angels - sending Adriana home. On Day 17, Hephaestus Trio dissolves.

Day 20, finds something in common with Buffy and joins the retaliation alliance, Ares Three, with Buffy, Daniel and Jamaal as Luis saw the Angels controlling the game. However, they target Jenny, who they felt was a safe decision, but she was tight with Nadia and they would side with the Angles. Luis' counter-alliance would fall at the first hurdle and lose Buffy. Day 27, Ares Three and Zeus' Angels would once again go head-to-head, but in the tie-breaker, Luis would flip to avoid rocks and Ares Three would lose again.

Day 30, leaves Ares Three for self-preservation and joins Zeus' Angels in voting out Jamaal. Day 33, has a major fight with Neelam, but joins Zeus' Angels in sending Daniel to the jury.

#### Voting History

**^1**  In Episode 10, the vote ended with a 4-4 deadlock between Nadia and Neelam, forcing a tie-breaker.

Day 5, finds something in common with Crystal Mihajlovic. Day 8, since landing on the beach, Neelam has been trying to vote out Luis, but it was Luis who would get the last laugh, when he and the majority of Pagua vote out Neelam. Day 9, bonds slightly with Justin Blackburn. Day 10, Luis leads the vote for Alina Covali-Knight, when she targets Juan Caceres, Juan uses this to get the Belize Alliance vote to send Alina home. Day 11, Luis bonds strongly with Justin.

Day 13, Luis joins Pagua Alliance with Crystal, Frits de Bruin, Justin and Sandeep Kabeer. Day 15, Luis leaves Pagua Alliance. On Day 16, Luis targets Debbie, unbeknownst to him, Debbie has a Hidden Immunity Idol and she uses it to blindside Luis and send him home, like his friend Su-Ling Goh.
