Fellow coffee lover?
For me, one of the best ways to get to know a new country is by heading to a local coffee shop. Of course, not only do I need that caffeine hit but you usually get to meet lovely local people, a feel for real life in that area and the chance to sit back and soak it all in. Does it get any better?!
A coffee a day has honestly become a non-negotiable in my travel budget – I look forward to it every single day.
Because of that, I would class myself as somewhat of a coffee shop connoisseur and make it my mission to also seek out the most unique, cosy spots with barista quality coffee.
