Prince Louis is fluent in Luxembourgish, French, English and German and has a very good knowledge of Spanish. During his studies in Switzerland, he developed a strong interest in social and humanitarian work and he participated in missions in Mumbai, India, led by a NGO working with his school. During school holidays, he taught English, mathematics and physical education to children living in the poorest neighbourhoods as well as those experiencing homelessness. 

When he returned to Europe, Prince Louis continued to work in the humanitarian field and notably completed a year-long internship with the Red Cross in Geneva. He also worked with groups of children and helped the elderly.
