062 - Tatiana Bugrova: Buying Land in Montelibero, Community & Montenegro

Episode • Jan 26, 2024 • 1h 2m

Moving to Montenegro, Montelibero Community, Libertarianism, Permaculture, Digital Nomadism, Lockdowns, Russia.

Timothy Allen talks with Tatiana Bugrova.

Tatiana is an active member of the Montelibero community who has bought a plot of land at 'MTL City', their fledging libertarian community site.

I caught up with her at the MTL clubhouse in Bar, Montenegro and we discussed her motivations for moving to Montenegro along with her hopes and expectations for the project.

If living in a libertarian community in Montenegro strikes a chord with you then I will point you to two other episodes from our Montelibero series.

Firstly, Episode 029 with Jose Birkin is a two hour deep dive into the community as a whole including an overview of their blockchain token system used for land ownership and community decision making.

Secondly, there is Episode 042 with Kosta & Albina, a digitally nomadic couple who have bought one of the newly built apartments in Montelibero. In a similar vein to this conversation with Tatiana, we discuss living nomadically and the draw to settle in a community of likeminded people.

Enjoy the conversation.
