General Cost of Living & Training in Thailand
Hi, Sylvie/Admin. I'm Ruan from South Africa. I totally fell in love with Muay Thai since the first time I saw it. Your video's and informative reads has helped me a lot in my journey. My biggest dream is living and training in Thailand, even if it's just for a few months. Can you maybe give me some info on what the cost of living and training in Thailand is? What would be the cheapest? I don't worry about luxury.
Would one maybe be able to do something on the sideline as well if you decide
Cost of living and training are HIGHLY variable. Thailand is a big country and different camps have different priorities (some are purely commercial, others are a little more traditional). Just living in different cities is going to skew your budget in large directions. I tell people that if you can't afford $1,200-$1,400 USD a month without including your airfare then don't bother to come long term. You can absolutely get by on less money, but life happens so it is better to be prepared.
