Baristocratia is everything you want in a cafe, and it’s conveniently nestled right in the center of Belgrade. Indoor and outdoor seating, wifi, delicious cookies and excellent coffee. It’s a recipe for a great morning, afternoon meeting, or evening pick-me-up.
Ubud’s no stranger to monkeys, rice paddies, and coffee. Ubud sits in the center of Bali, a giant volcanic island in Indonesia.
