The user is seeking advice on whether they can stay in Thailand for multiple periods (3-6 months each) on a Tourist Visa. Responses indicate that a long-term visa, such as a NON-O for those over 50, is recommended due to the extended time spent in the country. There are suggestions to consult the Thai consulate for the most accurate information and to consider the implications of re-entry under current visa regulations.
