My way to the Barista- ( Barista_ Karlo )
Posted by Simonou Mike on
Hi, my name is Karlo Puric and I am from Zagreb and I would love to share a story about my way to barista.

Picture 1 - Zagreb
I was born on 3rd of June, 1993. in capital city of Croatia, Zagreb. Short after that my familly and I moved to small city in Germany called Utting on Ammersee lake. My parents were working in their own restaurant as chef cooks. When I turned 6, I was forced to go to school in Croatia and my mom and me moved back to Zagreb, father stayed in Germany to work.
Durring my elementary School, every summer break, easter break I was going to visit my father and I started to help him with small things, clean tables, clean glasses etc. When I turned 14 I started to work behind the bar and that was my first with that I worked with coffee and I really loved it.

But my parrents wanted me to finish the college, get a diploma, find a good job. And thats what happened, well, at least some of them. 2011. I started to study Civil engineering and I liked it. In the same year my parrents opened a small caffe in Zagreb and I worked 2 times a week to earn some money for college.
Durring all these years I was playing handball semi-professional and I was very competitive, I wanted to be the best player. The same was with coffee, I wanted to serve best coffee in the caffe for me and my customers. I switched my college books with books about espresso. I started getting bad grades, I spent alot of money to get back into the college but it was too late.
In 2016 I quit my college and I started working full time in caffe and coffee passion was groving every day. In next 6 months nothing happened, I was just working.
One day I saw a guy called Dritan Alses doing a skill called "Latte art" and I was just amazed! After that I took some barista and latte art courses in Zagreb because I wanted to serve even better coffee to my customers. Customers reactions were wonderfully and that gave me a solid boost to improve my skills. I met Dritan at World of coffee in Budapest and I cant describe you how excited I was when I saw him .

In March 2017, friend told me that there is going to be an latte art competition in Zagreb and that I should join for fun. I told to my self: "I got nothing to lose". I couldn't even imagine what will happen next. The experience I gained is priceless. I end up on 3rd place in Croatia and I met so many wonderfull people. That was one of the best moments in my barista career.

And now I am here. Currently taking SCA curses so I can become SCA barista trainer and I am looking foreward to open another coffee shop, small coffee roaster and barista training center.
How I got conected with BaristaSpace guys?
I decided to open my Instagram profile and I wanted to share my arts with other baristas all over the world and to learn smething new. I saw all kinds of milk jugs but I saw once ranbow pitchers and I really wanted them but they were so expensive.

And then the mirracle happaned. I saw a post on Baristaspace instagram profile that they are giving away the rainbow jugs in exchange for 5 latte art videos. I got in touch with Ak to arrange the shipping. And as the time was passing, Ak and me became good friends. I ordered big amout of barista equipment from them.

BEST AGENCY TO RECOVER LOST OR STOLEN CRYPTOCURRENCY
I recommend Hack Recovery TSUTOMU SHIMOMURA to anyone who needs this service. I decided to get into crypto investing and lost my crypto to an investor late last year. The guy who was supposed to manage my account was a fraud the whole time. I invested $180,000 and at first my read and profit margins looked good. I got worried when I couldn’t make withdrawals and realized I had been tricked. I found some testimonials that people had to say about Hack Recovery TSUTOMU SHIMOMURA and how helpful it was in getting their money back. I immediately contacted him via. WEBSITE: https://tsutomushackexpert.com/ Telegram @TsutomuShimomurahacker or WhatsApp via: +1-256-956-4498, and I’m sure you will be happy you did.
I always believed cold wallets were the safest way to store crypto. That belief was shattered when I mistakenly reset my device and lost access to over $179,000 worth of Bitcoin and USDC. I had backed up the seed phrase, or so I thought, but during the reset, I realised the backup was incomplete. I couldn’t access my funds, and panic set in.
After days of trying to recover access on my own, I turned to forums and online resources. That’s when someone recommended Morphohack, a cyber recovery service specialising in blockchain forensics and crypto recovery. The team at Morphohack was calm and professional. They analysed my case and used specialised tools to trace my transactions and reconstruct the wallet environment. To my disbelief, they managed to recover access to my assets and $179,000 returned safe and secure.
It was a huge relief like getting a second chance. I’ve since doubled down on secure backups and proper key management. But if you ever face a loss like mine, don’t assume it’s permanent. Morphohack gave me hope when I had none, and they delivered results when no one else could. Their email. Morphohack@cyberservices. com

BITCOIN RECOVERY TESTIMONY: How I Got My Funds Back After a Major Crypto Theft.
Earlier this year, I went through one of the most devastating experiences of my life— My digital Asset wallet was compromised in what cybersecurity experts refer to as a “Dark Skippy” attack. It was a highly advanced and stealthy breach that completely wiped out my crypto portfolio in total of $1,425,000.
The sense of loss and helplessness was overwhelming. I had no idea how it happened so quickly and worse.
I didn’t know if I’d ever see that money again. I spent weeks looking for solutions— contacting platforms, forums, and supposed “recovery agents,” most of whom turned out to be scams themselves.
Then, I came across a company called TROJANHACK Cyber Security Company, and everything changed.
They were professional, highly knowledgeable, and transparent from the very start. Using the latest in advanced hacking software and forensic tools.
they were able to track the stolen funds across several wallets and trace the movement of my crypto with impressive accuracy. Their team not only located the stolen assets but also successfully recovered every last bit of it.More than just recovering my funds, they went a step further by helping me secure everything through advanced wallet protection strategies. They even provided me with basic cybersecurity training, so I now know how to better protect myself from future attacks.
Thanks to TROJANHACK, what started out as a financial disaster turned into a full recovery. I’m beyond grateful, and the least I can do is recommend them to anyone out there going through the same nightmare.
If you’ve lost crypto due to hacking or scams, don’t lose hope. I’ve been there and I got it all back. You can reach them via email:
