What are the best options for short-term rental villas and tips on relocating to Thailand for women in their early 50's?

Hello ladies,

My name is Noni and I’m from London. I am intending to relocate to Thailand in January and looking to connect with women of a similar age to me i.e in their early 50’s.I am looking for suggestions and recommendations for short term rental of a 2 bedroom villa that is convenient to local amenities such as supermarkets, hospitals and beaches) Unfortunately, I am in a situation whereby my husband is currently unable to join me. I would be grateful for any hints and tips concerning visa , banking and health insurance. Thanks in advance…

Honesty and sincerity greatly appreciated and returned,
