Cuban YouTuber Anita Mateu announces new project and surprises her fans

The YouTuber announced that she is ready to make the leap to television. Media producers in Galicia are betting on the talent of the young Cuban.


The Cuban influencer Anita Mateu, known for sharing her experience as a migrant in Spain through her YouTube channel, announced to her followers that she will begin a new chapter in her career as a television presenter in Galicia.

Mateu lives in the municipality of Carballo, in the province of A Coruña, and from there he has documented on his channel his adaptation process, daily life, and reflections as a Cuban abroad.

"I was presented with an opportunity with Televisión de Galicia," the young woman shared in a video posted on her social media, visibly excited about this new professional challenge.

Although she has not yet revealed the name of the program, Mateu hinted that it will be a weekly show. She will host one of the segments and will have to speak Galician, a language she began studying only a few months ago.

"I am very grateful and happy for this opportunity. The program is about getting to know Galicia, its people and its towns. I really like the format, which will be documentary-style," she explained.

The influencer also emphasized that filming this program allows her to continue improving her pronunciation in Galician, but above all, it forces her to grow as a professional and as a human being.

"She takes me to overcome personal challenges and I'm sure I will enjoy it a lot," she assured.

Despite the workload that this new responsibility entails, Anita Mateu clarified that she will not abandon her YouTube channel, where she will continue to share her daily life in Spain and her reflections on life outside Cuba.

This transition to regional television in Spain allows the young Cuban to expand her media impact and confirms that her charisma and authenticity have resonated with an audience beyond social media.

Anita Mateu assured that she will put all her effort into showcasing the beauty of Galicia, the autonomous community where she has been residing for several years and which has become her second home.
