“I only have these tattoos on my arm. Otherwise I have small tattoos here and there from when I was in school – me and my friend did homemade tattoos. At the beginning I only had this one star. It’s an old-school version of a spirit brand. I was at that brand’s event and they had a tattoo booth, but I like listening to metal and this kind of star is also a signature for metal. After that I did six more stars, to make a group of seven stars, called the Big Dipper. When travellers are lost in the woods, they look for the Big Dipper. When you find the Big Dipper, you can then find the Pole star, and then you will no longer be lost. So the meaning of it is that you will never be lost in your life. Sometimes I see bartenders with tattoos and I think it’s charming. The story of your tattoo may not have any connection with your career, but it’s a part of your life. This is why you keep it for yourself, to remind you about different parts of your life. I think my next tattoo will be a compass and something to remember our King Rama 9.”
