UPDATE: I will be able to host at beginning of February in Shanghai.

I am Filip from small country Montenegro, 30 years old architect.

MISSION

Since childhood, my dream was to travel around the world. Before I started to read and learn letters, I learned almost all countries flags :)

After a few years of traveling, I recently moved to Shanghai, to settle down a little bit, and dedicate myself to architecture and design. My biggest passion is traveling, especially human powered long expeditions. I have many plans for the future :) Right now, I work as a bicycle designer and architect in Shanghai.

When I am able to host, there is a lot of requests. So sometimes I don't have enough time to respond to every single message when not able to host so I just decline. Sorry about this.

Music, Movies, and Books

There is no favorite genre for me, but I enjoy listening music. It can be rock, jazz, classical, electronic, experimental etc. When travelling, I like to listen and learn about traditional music and instruments.
I like reading very much. One of my favorite books where I found a lot of inspiration for traveling is Narcissus and Goldmund by Hermann Hesse.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2014, a bike tour from Podgorica (Montenegro) to Amsterdam (Netherlands) in 40 days.
In 2015 solo climb to the highest mountain in Europe - Elbrus.
In 2015, a bike tour from Montenegro to the United Arab Emirates which lasted for 9 months. You can find photos about the tour on my facebook page: www.facebook.com/natritocka
