Five years ago I started a journey that brought me to fight professionally in Thailand and around the world.
A journey that started as a passion loving Muay thai deeply in my heart but that turned into becoming a job.
Slowly within the years fighting became a job. Something that I was doing for a living. I mean don’t get me wrong. It was still a
passion but it was watered down by duty and commitment, and people expecting me to fight, and what was my purse for that fight and so
on.
Slowly in the last six months or so, my focus had changed. I started to get tired, I almost didn’t want to fight anymore.
I mean I didn’t want to fight as a job. I still wanted the poetry in it.
So I decided to take a break and leave everything. My home Thailand, my gym, my friends , my boyfriend and go back into my past into my life that I had interrupted five years ago when I became a fighter. I wanted to see what I had left, what was there, what I was missing, but most of all I wanted the love for fighting to come back. Sometimes you just take everything you have for granted and it is a mistake. We don’t realize what we have until we actually lose it.
So I fell in love again. I mean with the sport, with Muay thai and fighting. I miss Thailand a lot. I decided my journey is not finished. I still have something to give. It’s not time to stop or surrender.
I still want to fight. I love Muay thai. It’s there deep into my heart. I am a nak muay.
