Default Brake Fluid Leak

So the foot brake like keeps popping on and off, I check the level its slightly below the minimum, so i refill and a couple of days go by and the level is back down. So I have a leak somewhere. Anybody have good suggestions where to start, any diagrams, etc ?

Usually this is due to aging pads. However, if you had to add like this constantly on a day by day basis then you have a problem.

Notice any excess fluid on your wheels?
