im from thailand. im thai. u can ask me anything about the muay thai camps here i can give u info on it..what province will u visit? bangkok, chiang mai, phuket??... probably bangkok, what would a month of training there do for me? Is it worth it? Or would I have to stay for a longer time to benefit from it? What type of food do they usually serve? I do not want to loose a tonne of weight.
I think my buddy has been in Phuket for a while now. He used to post in the Misc but obviously doesn't have much time to spend on BB.com. All I hear is great stories. I'd love to train in Thailand one day!!
I spent 5 months training in Thailand.
Questions :
-What's your budget?
-What's your experience level?
-Do you want to fight or to train?
-How well do you react in hot and humid climates?
-Do you like to party or just train?
-Do you like to lift weights as well?
-How long were you planning on going?
-Do you HAVE to be near a beach?
Answer those please.

I'd love to train in Thailand one day!! screw phuket bro, thats a party/tourist destination. I doubt the camps will give you legit hardcore training, they are pandering to the europeans who want to say "I trained at a MT camp!"
I really want to go, and when I do it will be at some rural secluded place. I want to see how real thais live and train. see the poor folks who have nothing and have to fight to put food on the table, they are hungry literally and figuritively.
I want to be in the mountains with the fresh(er) air, the beautiful rivers and lakes and the jungle.

-Do you HAVE to be near a beach? no 10 grand is a LOT. I mean if you want 3 months, 3 grand is like more than enough. lol. most of the budget is the plane tickets.
South asia is very cheap compared to us. (my research is via the net, so I dont know exactly. but Pakistan is in south asia as well, and some things are comparable like cheapness of stuff compared to us)
for 10 grand I'd imagine you can live like a baller for 3 months.
I guess the training is like 200 a month for like 6 hours a day, everyday. 3 months there training everyday is like at least a year over here.
then there is the living which is probably around 5-10 bux a day, and the food is like 5 a day.
the rest of your money would be blown on whatever else. partying, hookers, etc. (although I'd be weary of katoys and STDs)

then there is the living which is probably around 5-10 bux a day, and the food is like 5 a day. Eh... Maybe a bit more than that. Bear in mind, it's lots of rice, and carbs'll make you hungry again really quick. With ten grand, though, you've got nothing to worry about.
And yeah, avoid the kathoeys, if even only because they're an irritating bunch.
