I just got my visa approved on Sep 15th through the Soft Power program.

I applied in Ho Chi Minh on September 4, and even though the embassy asked for some extra documents (and my phone broke at the worst timing ever..55), everything finally worked out.

Big thanks to Wildcat Muay Thai in Chiang Mai — I honestly couldn’t have done it without their guidance and support 🙏

And also thanks to this group for sharing so much helpful info along the way.

Can’t wait to be back in Chiang Mai with my visa and start training soon!
