I think its great you are coming with no experience, it can be a really great attribute. This will be the first martial imprint.

Keep an open mind.

Pick a muay thai camp you feel an afinity for. It will be your home and your family.

Adapt to the environment and training routine.

Dont get frustrated. Your trainer has been training fighters for a long time, follow what they say even if they ask you to do just a little bit, do it and polish it as best as you can.

Every question will be answered in time.

Contribute to your camp, show some kindness, maybe pay for stuff here and there, maybe bring them some shirts, photos go a long way since most cant afford a camera.

Absorb, go to the fights, watch the top guys in the camp, they can help you endlessly once they see you are dedicated and committed.

Enjoy yourself, thailand and everything it has to offer.

Before you leave, figure out the visa you need, dealing with money, etc, maybe a few suggestions for camps----
