Listen to part one of my Radical Personal Finance podcast interview where I discuss frugality, travel hacking, and financial independence!

A couple of months ago, a guy named Joshua emailed me to ask if I'd be a guest on his new show – the Radical Personal Finance podcast. I agreed and we ended up having a very interesting two-hour conversation.

Since then, however, Joshua has been forced to take down his podcast (for undisclosed reasons) and since he's not sure when he'll be able to put it back up again, he has agreed to let me publish our interview here (thanks!).

I couldn't bear to hear myself talk for a full two hours though so I decided to edit the interview down into two smaller parts and today, I am publishing part one.

It was great being on the other side of the interview for once so hopefully you enjoy hearing a bit about my personal journey to financial independence.

Highlights:

• Different Paths to FI
• Frugality and Sacrifice
• How to Have an Expensive Hobby
• Travel Hacking
• Slow Travel
