This week we wanted to keep things short and sweet after our personal stories about finding our fleek. We hope that you enjoyed them! If you haven’t yet the previous blogs this mini-series, check them out here!

I moved abroad when I was 20. I’ve always been ambitious and when I started working for a well-known tour operator it was no different. I loved the job, always wanting to excel, and I did.

Good morning our lovely fleekers and HAPPY FRIDAY!

 It’s Emma here, co-founder of Fleek Reteats and I’m going to be bringing you this weeks’ Find Your Fleek Friday blog. Since we launched on the 28^th February, we have released a slow-living blog on our website every week.
