Brazil
High School
Year Graduated: 2018

Hi. I’m Lucas from Rio de Janeiro. I joined The High School at VIU 3 years ago in grade 10. I graduated in June 2018, and I was co-valedictorian at my graduation ceremony.

I am a different person today from who I was when I moved to Nanaimo in 2015. I have very happy memories of my friends and my teachers at THS. And I met a young lady that changed my life.

In September 2018, I will start the Bachelor of Science at Vancouver Island University majoring in Biology, and after that I am hoping to continue to medical school.

If you are thinking about becoming an international student in Canada, my advice is to choose a small school which has great teachers and excellent support services. That is what made my experience at THS a success.
