Spotlight on Erin

I have two unhealthy obsessions: Organisation/stationery & my Golden Retriever, Django.

I’m a busy girl that thrives under pressure.  Just take a look at my diary and in between working, studying and planning a wedding I try to be active and fit in a pole-dancing class and gym sessions where I can (it’s a wonder I have time for a fiancé at all!).

I’ve been working at spaQ since September 2012 as a spa receptionist. I have a diploma in Remedial Massage, so am sometimes required to step in and perform treatments which I absolutely love! It means I get the best of both worlds – I get to see people leave and chat to them about their supremely relaxing treatments and wonderful therapists… and sometimes I get to be that “wonderful” therapist that makes them feel so amazing. My therapist hot tip for everyone is… stretch – even if it’s on your chair at work and your neck is sore… it’s amazing the difference it will make to how you feel (and make your massage therapists job a little easier too!)

I’m a small town girl at heart and could leave the bright lights and hype of the city for the fresh mountain air or lazy afternoons at the beach.

I love travelling and am lucky enough to have lived and worked in Canada as well as having back-packed for three months around Europe with my fiancé last year.

Amongst others, two of our favourite places were the Tatras Mountains in Slovakia and a little ginger-bread town called St Wolfgang in Austria.

On my days off you’ll find me walking my dog down by the river, drooling over Swedish stationery in my favourite store, Kikki K, or planning my next big adventure.
