MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: 10 QUESTIONS WITH CLAUDIA
Chilling in the sun with an ebook by hand is one of Claudia's off-duty passions. The Amsterdam member also loves to socialize and is a big fan of her airfryer.
Name?
Claudia Oosterling, but you can call me Clau ;)
Birthplace?
I was born in Leidschendam, but grew up in Zoetermeer.
Based in?
Amsterdam (the Netherlands), together with my "housemate" aka my dog/Welsh Corgi Evie!
Personal vibe?
People often say I have lots of energy, I am jolly or "the sunshine in the house!" Really nice compliments tho haha. I always try to stay positive and like to drag others into my enthusiasm, (sorry not sorry).
Off-duty passions?
Walking with my dog, having fun (drinks, dinner, partying, socializing) with friends. Chilling in the sun on my balcony with my e-book or listening to music. On Sundays chilling with the fam. Travel to the sun (especially during the winter).
Current hustle(s)?
I work as a Chapter Lead Content at a large telecommunications company. As a people leader, together with my team, I am responsible for the creation and execution of content for marketing campaigns, within the consumer market. And you can also book me as a presenter, host, side-kick, chairperson of the day or quizmaster. Among other things, I interview guests, supervise events and interact with the audience.
Life hack you swear by?
An airfryer. From cakes to the tastiest deep-frying dishes (I love deep-frying), I throw anything in it! I often give airfryer tips to everyone around me haha. Feel free to ask me for airfryer hacks :)
Standout cultural experience?
Pff I can’t pick! But I would have to say the travel destination Croatia. I was there with friends and we were so surprised. Split and Hvar in particular are nice places if you want to go on a city trip for a good price. Not too long of a flight, great culture, beautiful beaches and plenty to do from morning till late into the night!
What do you bring to the community?
Positive energy and lots of good vibes. Let’s have some fun, while we share our (mutual) experiences and interests. And of course my airfryer tips ;).
What drew you to Inner Circle?
Being single while living in Amsterdam feels really hopeless sometimes (it’s a bit like the housing market, little supply and lots of competition haha). I recently even participated in the Bachelor, which was not the solution either, haha. And to make it even more difficult: I like to be around people, but I’m afraid to approach a cute guy. So that’s why I like Inner Circle: you’ll swipe for a connection that’s based on your type with the same interests. And when you end up going on a date in your favorite bar, it really does feel more relaxed!
