The APAC crew at @bufferapp—spread across different teams, time zones, and roles, but every single one an absolute gem. Grateful for this group.

Since we usually work solo and async for most of the year, getting to sit side by side, talk through tricky conversations, and support each other while helping customers was incredibly energising.
Bonus shoutout to my colleague Dave for hosting us at his beautiful villa (thank you, retreat free upgrade magic ✨). Easily one of the best workspaces of the week.

Incidents are never fun. But sitting side-by-side, solving a problem together, was a powerful reminder of what we can do. Not just as colleagues, but as a team.
Being physically together, even for a short time, adds a different kind of energy to how we work. And it made me even more grateful for the incredible humans I get to work with.

It’s moments like this that remind me why I love working on a remote team. We may be apart most of the year, but when we come together, we bring the whole world with us. 🌍💛

Just back from the Buffer retreat in Antalya 🇹🇷
It was an incredible week. I work with some of the most thoughtful, talented, and genuinely lovely people—and I’m still feeling grateful (and a little sleep-deprived).
More reflections soon. First: rest... and fingers crossed my check-in bag makes it back from its accidental vacation in Dubai.
As an extrovert working in a very different timezone from most of the team, this kind of connection is rare and deeply meaningful.
It took over 20 hours of travel to get here. 100% worth it.
