Starbucks Hopping

I am a notorious Starbucks drinker. At one point in my life, I was drinking it three times a week before it burnt a hole in my pocket right through my purse and pants. We all know it's not cheap but I still keep going back for more. So I've made it my mission to look for a Starbucks in every country I plan to travel to.

New Zealand
Auckland (March 2010) - Well-deserved after jumping off the Auckland tower.

Thailand 
Bangkok (2010 - 2012) - Every time I went to Bangkok, Starbucks was a must. Langsuan road's outlet was my favourite, a teak structure shielded by trees and plants alongside a busy one-way road.

Japan 
Kyoto (June 2013) - After traveling from Nara, Starbucks made up lunch. The Strawberry Cheesecake frappacino was superb. 

Osaka (June 2013)- Didn't drink here but the merchandises were definitely eye-catching.

Singapore 
Clarke Quay (December 2013) - It was the Christmas festival and Malaysia's Starbucks had run out of Cranberry White Chocolate mocha. Luckily I managed to get my fix in Singapore.

Indonesia
Bandung (July 2012) - After hours of walking and shopping, we found the crowded Cihampelas Starbucks and saw that they were having a buy one, free one. Needless to say, we joined the crowd.

Bali (Jan 2014)

Ubud - The first and only Starbucks in the tiny town of Ubud. Furthermore it is located next to a stunning temple.

Kuta - The former Hard Rock cafe has been revamped to share the lot with Starbucks. There is a doorman/security guard ready to greet you with a friendly smile as he holds the door open for you.

Another outlet in the outskirts of Kuta, hidden away in Galeria Mall.

 

Visited locations with no Starbucks: Male, Maldives; Perth, Australia
