The Most Shocking Starbucks Locations In The World
Last week we showed you a video we took of a Shocking Starbucks Location on the remains of the Berlin aaa. That's right, where there was once a barrier between democracy and communism now stands a barista making you double mocha, non-fat, extra whip frappucinos. And like other fast food joints we frequent, there are many more Shocking Starbucks throughout this great world of ours.
We've listed The Most Shocking Starbucks locations we've found below. And while we'd like to include the custom Starbucks shop that Tommy Lee reportedly put in his house when he was still married to Pam Anderson, we're going to leave our list at places you can actually visit in your travels.
Please send in any of your own crazy SBUX encounters (with photos!) and we'll give them pride of place on the Starbucks shocking locations map and more.

Walk The Path Of The Berlin Wall And Crash Into A Starbucks
Fresh from our Most Shocking McDonald's Locations and Must-See Apple Stores Of The World series, we're taking requests for Subways as we begin our Most Shocking Starbucks Locations. Know of a 'Bucks randomly tucked into a curious corner of the world? This is going to be a running series, so email us your suggestions!
So let's say that you're enjoying a lovely evening out for a stroll in Berlin, Germany and you're perhaps following a brick path in the street that marks the former location of the Berlin Wall. You're walking along, eyes down at the ground as you ponder the history around Potsdamer Platz especially, when you run right into the side of a Starbucks.

Seattle, Chicago and London Get A Preview Of Starbucks' New 'Via'
How many times have you sat there thinking "you know, I could really go for a cup of Starbucks coffee right now, but none of the corporation's 16,120 locations are close enough for me to get to." If that sounds like a problem you encounter regularly, Starbucks has launched a new line of instant coffee that you can carry everywhere. Problem solved.
The new product is dubbed Starbucks VIA Ready Brew—"via" like "road," apparently—and comes in either Colombia Medium or Italian Roast Extra Bold. Just add hot or cold water. The only brick and mortar stores stocking the mix are in Seattle, Chicago, and London. If you do want desperately to try a cup though, you can order online from their website.

Getting Touristy at The Pike Place Market
This week Jaunted editor Juliana will be sharing her experiences from a recent field trip to Seattle where she wasn't afraid to do all the touristy things in town. Any questions or tips? Let us know.
The first place to hit up in Seattle is without a doubt, The Pike Place Market, a 102-year-old institution dubbed "The Soul of Seattle." What started as a traditional farmer's market has evolved into one of the largest tourist attraction in the Northwest.
A sign of how touristy this market is? Group tours regularly gather around the fish stands and the fish sellers put on a big show of tossing around humongous fresh fish. Word is, locals buy this fresh fish but with all that tossing around we have to wonder.

Adventures of Link: "Free" WiFi
You've heard, right? Starbucks will start giving away two-hour chunks of WiFi to people who use their 'bux card at least once a month. Given that we're more into alternative coffee shops, we're having a hard time getting excited about getting online this way.
Besides, it's not actually free: You have to buy stuff! Still, for a lot of people, this is probably a good deal. (Just make sure to read through the extensive rules and restrictions.)
But we did get excited about certain Starbucks airport locations. Would they give us a work-around for those obnoxious $10-a-day fees? According to the searches we did... No. All the airport locations we checked are WiFi-free. Weak!
