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.

When my family and I invested in what seemed to be a sophisticated crypto trading app we were filled with hope and anticipation. The platform looked professional and the testimonials were convincing. Everything about it made us believe we had made a wise decision. For a short while the app even showed what looked like extraordinary profits and our confidence grew. Then the illusion collapsed. The website disappeared overnight. The so-called support team went silent. Our accounts were suddenly inaccessible. In one devastating instant 30,000 dollars of our family’s savings was gone. The loss was crushing. It was not only about the money but about trust, guilt, and the heavy feeling of betrayal. The days that followed were filled with anguish. I lay awake at night replaying every choice and blaming myself. The despair was suffocating and the sense of helplessness unbearable. In my desperate search for hope I found CHAINTRACE ASSET RECOVERY. They were transparent and patient. They set clear expectations and explained their process with honesty. For the first time since the scam I felt a spark of hope. When I gave them the chance to help I expected little. Instead I found professionalism of the highest level. They kept me updated at every stage and explained blockchain tracing in terms I could follow. Their expertise and dedication were clear. Then came the moment I thought would never come. They recovered 22,000 dollars of our stolen funds. The relief was overwhelming. I cried not only because of the money returned but because the heavy weight of guilt and despair finally lifted. We did not get everything back but what we regained changed everything. It gave us stability and restored our hope. I will always be grateful to CHAINTRACE ASSET RECOVERY. They did more than recover money. They restored our peace of mind and gave us the strength to move forward. If you have been scammed and believe all is lost please know there is still hope.

When I first encountered what seemed like a golden opportunity to grow my Ethereum investment, I was convinced I had found the right partners. The so-called investors had convincing platforms, smooth communication, and promises of unbelievable returns. Trusting them, I put in my Ethereum coins only to discover too late that it was all a scam. My wallet was drained, and my heart sank.I felt betrayed, devastated, and powerless.Then I found Washington Recovery Pro. At first, I was skeptical, but their approach was different, calm, transparent, and deeply professional. They explained the process of blockchain tracing, mapping every movement of my stolen Ethereum. With patience and persistence, they pursued the scammers’ transactions across multiple wallets and exchanges.Weeks later, I received the news I thought I’d never hear: my Ethereum coins had been successfully recovered. Seeing them restored in my wallet was a moment of relief and gratitude I cannot fully describe.Washington Recovery Pro didn’t just recover my funds they restored my hope and trust after such a painful experience.Don’t hesitate to visit their handles for similar issues…
