Chris Kirkland is a bootstrapped entrepreneur who has been living nomadically since 2006 and is the founder of several web businesses including artweb.com and tokyocheapo.com.

We talk about how he has experimented with money, creativity, health and his lifestyle over the past 13 years. His nomadic journey started when he took a trip to Japan and after two days decided "fuck it," I'm going to stay a bit longer.

We talk about his journey, entrepreneurship and his life experiments

Why entrepreneurs are really risk averse

His recommendations for cheap eats in Tokyo
