Hello everybody,
I am a 29 yo from Germany who started training mma 9 months ago as the world of martial arts totally soaked me in. As I am kinda old for startiung martial arts I want to get work in asap in order to improve fast and get some fighting experience rather sooner than later. Before settling in and building my life in good old germany I want to go for a last crazy ride, quitting my job and intensively training muay thai plus also some grappling in thailand if possible.
After doing some research, all I find is muay thai camps that include accommodation and catering as a whole. I would like to find a flat to stay on my own and just train at a good gym without purchasing a complete camp-package as a whole. I don't need to travel, I prefer a boring *** - eat, train , sleep and repeat - life for a couple months.
So I wonder if some of you experienced a similar trip to thailand planned on your own, getting a visa, finding a permanent flat and training at a great local gym. If so, I would be glad if you could share your experience and let me know whether you recommend sticking to those all inclusive training camps or if planning everything on yourself actually makes a better experience. Is there anything you need to take into consideration that hasn't been obvious in the first place?
