Filip Kletnikov completed his studies in German language and literature at the University „Ss Cyril and Methodius“ in Skopje, Macedonia. He completed an MA in Interdisciplinary Medieval Studies (German, Philosophy, Art History) at the Otto-Friedrich University of Bamberg with a DAAD scholarship. Currently, he is a second-year PhD student in the Department of German and Scandinavian at the University of Oregon in Eugene.

Other interests include Poetry, Expressionism, Decadence, Mysticism and the relation between philosophy, science and literature. He is also active as a poet, translator, literary critic, and essayist.
