about working with Weekend Candy

“We’re absolutely in love with her fresh writing style and attention to details. In a press trip, Claire is a true one-man band, writing texts, taking pictures, producing videos, and updating her numerous social media channels. That makes her independent, mobile and easy to work with. We warmly recommend Claire as a writer to anyone in need of high quality content for their business.”
