Name?
Matheus
Birthplace?
São Paulo, Brazil
Based in?
Haarlem, the Netherlands
Personal vibe?
I’m (mostly) a humorous person, always trying to bring some positivity and a bit of levity to any environment. I enjoy connecting with people through a shared laugh, but also through deep (and sometimes thought-provoking) conversations.
Off-duty passions?
I have many, but if I had to choose just a couple, I’d say running and music. Running gives me a sense of discipline and connection with myself, while music has the unique power to connect me to others in a special way.
Current hustle?
I’m currently working on finding a balance between self-development to reach my professional goals and enjoying life with friends and family.
Life hack you swear by?
Put your morning alarm at least five steps away from your bed. The urge to hit ‘snooze’ vanishes once you’re already up.
Standout cultural experience?
Running a marathon in Chicago was definitely an experience that connected me to a global community and allowed me to experience the energy of locals in a different way. A truly immersive cultural experience that I’d love to repeat.
What do you bring to the community?
I feel like I’m mainly able to bring a multicultural perspective to many topics, shaped by my experiences growing up in Brazil, living in Europe, and exploring different cultures around the world.
What drew you to Inner Circle?
I love that Inner Circle curates a community of like-minded and interesting people. It creates a space where you can truly connect and have good conversations with individuals who value, enjoy and prioritise similar things.
Personal quote or mantra?
Motivation won’t take you nearly as far as discipline will.
